I improved my English a lot and am fluent now, and that was what I had expected from my stay in Copenhagen. Apart from that, I took a Danish course for beginners which taught me some basic knowledge.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
The apartments which CBS offers to exchange students are very comfortable and in the city center. These apartments are usually for a couple of exchange students from everywhere, that's why I chose this form and would choose it again!
