Personal comments
Groningen is a dificult place to find accommodation. There are not enough rooms and apartments for all the students. From my point of view, they should arrange better the exchange programmes within the rest of the European universities, and do not invite so many students to study in Groningen if they can not afford a room for them to live in Groningen.

I´ve been in private schools since kinder garden, which means I have taken english courses since then. I practice it at home, with movies, internet, friends and in school. It was not a problem at all. Hence, the Netherland´s language is dutch, they speak english to me everytime.

Nearly everybody in Groningen was able to talk in english even at the supermarkets or so. At the University the english level, in my opinion, was really good and connected to the continuous interaction with other international students, I think it was a great language experience.
