Personal comments:
No, I think not. I just recommend to the future erasmus students to stay more with the "local" students, it helps. To stay with the erasmus students it's good but to be integrated with all the portugueses students, it's better. I didn't do this. And I regret.

Course recommendations:
We were supposed to study in English and chose course marked as 'course in English'. In fact, when we arrived some of those courses were held in portuguese and we changed them. In fact, if u know Spanish, Italian, Romanian it it pretty easy to learn Portuguese to that extent to follow the course. It's better to take a course held in Portuguese even if u don't know pt but know one of these languages than be sorry after. Some of the course s were not good at all. There were sometimes only 2 people in a class, and never more than 20. There are late courses starting at 21.00. There is an obligatory attendance of 40% in almost all of the courses.

Personal comments:
Yes! first of all, to provide a fast Portuguese course before the studies start! We arrived a week beore the official start of the studies but the actual studies started 2 weeks later the official start. For that time we could have learnt the language!! Also, to look at some courses' containing-it's not good if a teacher only gives us some copies and doesn't explain anything interactively
