Housing
Type of housing: with 12 roomates !
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I would find 2 or 3 good friends to live with me in our own place instead of living with 12 roomates (great) BUT with the 2 owners... no party possible !

Personal comments
I was living 5 minutes'walk from the campus and I had the choice between twob train station to go downtown.
What was great was living with 12 international roomates.
The bad point was that the Japanese owners were also living in the house.
No party, and quite no friends allowed in the house/ garden.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I'd rather live in an apartment/house because:
1.- Considering rent, food and utilities, the final living cost for an apartment is lower than on Campus.
2.- No need of sharing the room with your roommate and restrooms with the rest of the students living in the same floor.
3.- More flexibility and quality regarding meals. Living on campus implies eating the food the cafeteria/Dining hall offers and at the scheduled time.
4.- Dorms are usually noisy spaces because there are too many students, with different schedules and different objectives. Therefore, it's difficult to have the appropriate environment for effective study.

Why?
Living in an apartment gives you more freedom as you don't have to obey to certain restrictive rules. However, I would have taken an individual room, it's more private (although even more expensive)

It's almost impossible to stay on campus as an exchange student. There are very few spots as they don't even have enough room for all the local students. But finding an apartment is quite easy.
