Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: One of the dorms
Why?
More contact with people-something that you miss our on a lot being a private house. Also a lot of the dorms had better locations, than where I was staying.

Personal comments
My housing situation was ok except for two factors: location and contact with other people. I would ahve much rather prefered to live in a dorm, eventhough it may have been more expensive it would have made my time in Copenhagen much more enjoyable.

Academic
Course recommendations
Courses here were very dissapoinating-there was very little application of material on the part of the teachers. I found the amount of readings was excessive to the point of being irrelavant. I learned very little overall from my educational experience here.

Personal comments
More assignemnts thorughought the year-less focus on readings more on class interaction, create a better atmosphere to learn. Have professors who are stimulating, rather than nauseating. Make it importnatn for students to come to class...
