HOUSING
by Eveline, Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien, Vienna, Austria
Environmental Sciences, Erasmus
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Because it was a very good experience to live with 3 other exchange students in one house and we had a lot of fun.
Personal comments:
Both, student accommodation and private accommodation have their pros and cons. The first one is more expensive, but you get to know a lot of other students you´re living with. The second option is normally cheaper and it´s "your" house... This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
STUDENT LIFE
by Sebastian, Hochschule Bremen, Bremen, Germany
Business Studies, Erasmus
Personal social experience
Describe host city: Students equally interact with the local and student community
Activities: Takes place mostly within the university/student environment Nightlife, Travel: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
It's Sheffield, home of the amazing Arctic Monkeys! The best venue to listen to Indiemusic is the Leadmill - just a five minutes walk - or the Plug. I also enjoyed going to pubs. Also regular visits to the students union 'the Hubs'. But private parties at fellow students were the best. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
When you choose a course you do it in your own country without knowing anything about that.A suggestion is to ask to the students of your university that have been in the same place before or to your teachers

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: English
Was learning English a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my English How much did you improve your English?
My level before: At ease in most situations My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang) Personal comments:
At first it was a little bit hard, because you dont understand so good the teacher, but it becoms better, so finally you dont have any problems to understand and to study. The first examns were hard, we had to revise the dictionary all the time, but then, you have practise, so things became easier.
