Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
On campus is has too many rules, so I've heard...But I'm from holland, so arranging and moving is relatively easy, becuse I could just get a train and come. But if you come from far, maybe on-campus housing may be a good solution, but there are not many available (this semester just 3) so have a backup plan to search yourself.
