HOUSING

Education, Secondary, Erasmus
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? More space!
Personal comments:
It is okay for three months. I am at Wyvern Hall, which is one of the four different Halls. In your room there is bed, desk, cupboard, little desk and a mirror. There isn`t a lot of space but it will do! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

STUDENT LIFE

Education, Secondary, Erasmus
Personal social experience
Describe host city: Students equally interact with the local and student community
Activities: Takes place mostly within the university/student environment Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Nightlife: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
There is a pub at campus called the "DIVE". Most people go to the pub first and then go to a club in town. There is a busstop in front of the main entrance and at the back entrance. For people who are really into sports; this is a paradise! You can do lots of sports! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
