HOUSING

Engineering, Electrical, Independent
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? I was extremely satisfied by the estates in Gainesville. There are many complexes and almost all of them offer very good amenities at fair prices.
Personal comments:
On-campus housing at University of Florida is difficult to get for exchange students. However off-campus housing is very good and cheap. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
Some courses are broadcasted on TV when too many students want to attend the class, which can be disturbing for French students, used to go to class and to interact with teachers. Therefore, it is important to know that teacher assistants are available to help at anytime.
