The Aarhus School of Business review by Patricia
HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? Because of the enviroment. You live with students as you and you can share a lot of things.
Personal comments:
It was quite good. Maybe a bit far from University because I had to get a bus that it takes half an hour in arriving. This is not the bad thing, but it was not so good when it snowed. Apart from that I was very happy. I had got used to that live very fast. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

STUDENT LIFE
Personal social experience
Describe host city: Student life dominates the city
Activities: Takes place mostly within the university/student environment Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Nightlife: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
I use to go to private parties in different students houses or in the University almost every Thursday night. It is quite common because if you chose to go out to a club or a pub it is quite expensive. Not many students can afford it. I went out down town only one night to know it. It was good but I found everything expensive. Anyway, if you like walking, the city it is very nice. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

No, it wasn't. 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: Everyday knowledge (shopping, directions, etc.) My level after: At ease in most situations How much did you improve your local language?
My level before: Did not speak it My level after: Basic phrases Personal comments:
It found difficult to understand and to speak in English. But later I got use to the different accents. Everybody spoke English. When they spoke in Danish I could not understand a word, but I learnt a few words and expressions although it is not enough to have a conversation. I was more concentrated in English and in French because I took all my classes in English and one of my courses was French Language.
