There are alot of clubs, bars and restaurants that are excellent in the city. Exploring to find good places with friends was fun. Usually all the echange students explored the different spots together or in smaller groups.

Languages
Language of instruction: English
Was learning English a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't.
Language difficulties
Administrative / Institutional
Personal comments
Communicating with the host university was not a problem at all, it was easy to get things accomplished as school, but you learn basic language skills to have an easier time in the rest of the city and most of the older generation in Prague are less likely to speak english outside of the tourist areas.

They make the academic experience perfect because the profs know that students have the opportunity to travel, so they lighten the course work load for students to enjoy all the great advantages of living in CR.

Food was relatively inexpensive, alcohol and houseing were very cheap, nightlife depends on each persons spending habbits, and I travelled alot during my exchange. Overall, I spent the amount I budgeted. It is not difficult to stay within your budget in Prague.
