Couldn't have asked for more.
Pretty good.
Could've been better, but didn't lessen the overall experience.
Disappointing.
Facilities
Location
Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: Kollegiet or Kollegium
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Kollegium near the center or the school
Why? Because, the actual one it's too far from the school and downtown. Howewer, it is ok.
Personal comments:
It is good idea that they look for accomodation for Exchange Students that are not from the Scandinavian Countries. U will like your accomodation according to the place u will get, and this is pure chance whether u get a good one. As far as I am concerned, accomodation at ASB is pretty good : U r not leaving alone!

Personal comments:
Teachers should give the evaluation criteria in order to have a better idea of what they are looking for by giving the projects. sometimes it was hard for me to find out which orientation I should give to my work and the comments from the teachers were always very general on this aspect.

Educational
Administrative / Institutional
Overall
Language of instruction: English
Local language was: Different than language of instruction.
Was learning English a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my English
Was learning the local language a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my knowledge
How much did you improve your English?
My level before: No problems in any areas (including slang)
My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang)
How much did you improve your local language?
My level before: Did not speak it
My level after: Everyday knowledge (shopping, directions, etc.)
Personal comments:
I have good English skills(the language of instruction) before, so, this aspect wasn't a big concern for me although having the opportunity to improve it was one of the main reasons to study abroad. English is understood and spoken in a bilingual level for almost everyone, so, communication was not a problem. I took some basic Danish classes too.

The accessibility of student needs
Second-hand text books
KEY:
Very easy.
Minimal effort.
Accessible but required effort.
Almost impossible.
Second-hand household items
Computers / Internet
Administrative
Money from home
Main source of funding:
Family
Other sources of funding:
Family
Work opportunities:
I worked during my study abroad experience
Personal spending habits:
Food, activities in general are much more expensive in Dk thn in Belgium. Basically, you must add twenty percent to the unit cost in Belgium. A beer is sometimes about 40 EUR! Anyway, I travelled with erasmus friends by van and it was really cheap, and so rich with respect to socialisation. Since Aarhus is far more wanted for its accomodation than Brussels, the price is consequently nearly the same. In fact, Brussels is expensive for that.
Food, Nightlife, Overall: was more expensive than at home.
Travel, Telephone, Housing: was the same price as at home.
Personal comments:
none
