Wonderful hospitality, really much more than in Italy. Students are really considered as persones, not only as a number. Excelents services, like the tutorial one, that in Italy doesn't exists or is completely inactive. Read Review

Personal assessment
Cost
KEY:

Disappointing.
Facilities
Location
Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? There are many reasons.I ll give two as an example.1.Your are far more independent you live in a house than on campus.For example,on campus you have to have dinner until for example 18h30,which is quite early.In a house you don depend on anybody. On campus you have less privacy and more noise.But on the other hand as a Erasmus or international student it is easier to meet peolple and make friends on campus.
Personal comments:
The University helped me to find a proper house by searching all the houses available in Nottingham that would be proper for a student to live. They help me,trying to find my house,talking to the landlords and so on. The housing at the Universiy of Nottingham was excellent.

Personal comments:
The improvement should come from my home university that asked too many credits for me. 60 credits were too much (it usually represents 6 modules) and I didn't have time to take an English course to improve my English as I would have liked.
