Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Home university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
I loved living in the house with my roommates, but to live on campus would be another experience, and I think I would get to interact with more non-study abroad students.

Housing was fantastic. It was a large house/mansion about 2 block away from Trinity. I loved it.
