HOUSING    
by Laura, Universidade da Coruņa, A Coruņa, Spain
Chemistry, Erasmus
Personal assessment
Cost
KEY:
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: student residence
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Because I would like to have more independence and I would able to cook my own food, an that thing was imposible at the residence.
Personal comments:
The residence is good when you arrive because there are a lot of students like you and you can meet them. The residence is near the university and this is a good thing, but by otherside...is too far from town center.

KEY:
Amazing! Hardly had time to study.
Plenty to do when I had the time.
So-so.
Did not get involved.
Nightlife
Travel
Overall
Describe host city: Students interact with the local community without much university involvement
Activities: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment
Nightlife, Travel: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment
Personal comments:
Places close not so late at night.This pissed us a bit so we figured there should be some place that closes later. *Zaragozana.This is the one.The place's a real dump but you really have fun in there. *Picasso.Sure you'll heard of this disco-pub if you get there.One of the best rated of'em all. *Circolo degli artisti. Acceptable. ---------------------------------------- Other than night places,I highly recommend a good view of the city at night.

ACADEMIC

My academic experiences
Quality of courses
KEY:
Fantastic.
Pretty good.
Could've been a bit better.
Disappointing.
Variety of courses
Availability/access to resources
Interaction with teachers
Interaction with other international students
Interaction with local students
Course recommendations:
Watch it here! This is University's one of the best among the country, which means that they don't care much whether or not you're an exchange student since there's a reputation to stand. Don't choose very tough ones!



My opinion of the university assessment
Exams at end of course
KEY:
Liked it.
It was alright.
A bit annoying.
Didn't like it.
Exams throughout the course
Essays and/or projects at the end of course.
Essays and/or projects throughout the course
Overall
Personal comments:
The "computing system",if it can go by that,is a dump.There's just one official place where students can check email and make internet research.Only 4 computers of them with a minimum Win95 to be shared with a certain amount of locals working on a Thesis.Then there was,thank god, the library...but still anything related to Pcs was a sheer nightmare.

Language difficulties
Social
KEY:
No problems.
I coped pretty well.
Sometimes it was difficult.
It was a constant struggle.
Educational
Administrative / Institutional
Overall
Language of instruction: Italian
Was learning Italian a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't.
How much did you improve your Italian?
My level before: Everyday knowledge (shopping, directions, etc.)
My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang)
Personal comments:
You need to speak italian, even if you don't know much is the best choice out of a language that you can make. People are helpful in Italy. English don't buy much at the University,though.

Food, Nightlife, Overall, Housing: was more expensive than at home.
Travel: was the same price as at home.
Telephone: was less expensive than at home.
Personal comments:
Cash dispensers have high fees. Better to withdraw a significant amount at once. Careful with the banks if you want to open an account."Banca di Roma" scammed a bunch of people a lot with a supposedly Student-fee-free sort of account.
