i found the courses here to be less intensive than in my home uni. the teachers are all very helpful and willing to do whatever they can to help you.

Housing
Type of housing:
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
i would chose the same place as i think you meetmany more people if you live in university accomadtion. it made it very easy to make friends as many erasmus students lived in the same complex. the only problem was the price. it was very expensive in comparison to privately rented accomadation

Personal comments
there isn't a great night life in malta. there is of course Paceville where all the nightclubs are located and its a great place...the beat clubs are footloose which organises erasmus parties and Fuego which is a salsa bar that plays really good music.
