Personal comments
Accomodation is a big isssue there, people at the university try to do their best to find an accomodation for every exchange/foreign sutdent. But sometime they could not satisfy everyone, but don't worry, you will not sleep in the street.
Tips: If you really want want to see the Danish student live, try to contact and get a room at student campus called "collegium"

Fortunatley most of the danes spoke English, except may be for the bus driver. Danish is quite difficult to learn in one semester, however I get some insight of Danish after one semester.
