There is a surprisingly wide variety of classes, but the University of Virginia has watered them down considerably. However, this allows you to pursue other interests, like museums, film, etc.

There are no improvements that can be made at the host university. The student must accept that different countries have different ways of teaching and assessing and it is these that you have to come to terms with.

The university of Valencia doesn´t have an introduction week at the beginning of the semester. And most of the teachers still don´t have fixed hours of attention. It would be nice to organize a meeting for all the international students because you loose a lot of time until you really start studying.
