Studenterhuset on wednesdays is an obvious choice- and sign up to be a volunteer bartender or DJ! Rust and Vega are good nightclubs for dancing, but drinks are expensive. Friday nights are reserved for faculty Fredagsbars- cheap beers and dancing with Danish uni students! Best one is with the political science faculty at CSS, other good ones with English and History, Biology and Law.

Alojamiento
Tipo de alojamiento: Danish Kollegium
Organizado por: Universidad de intercambio
Si volviera, eligiría: Danish Kollegium
¿Por qué?
Living in a kollegium gives you a chance to interact and make friends with the Danes, something that most exchange students aren't able to accomplish. However, kollegium conditions and costs vary a lot between buildings so do your research!

Si lo hubiera sabido...
Bring a raincoat! Wasn't prepared for the amount of partying... but that isn't really such a bad thing is it? Living abroad, especially in Copenhagen, forces a lot of independence out of you. In situations where I used to run to my mommy for help, I had to deal with everything myself but its a great feeling of accomplishment to know that you're capable of it!

Recomendación personal
I haven't met a single person who hasn't loved Copenhagen. A lot of people (including myself) ended up here on a whim but we've wound up loving it to bits. The city is small and cosy and very easy to get to know. Yes the Danes can be difficult to break through but its worth the effort because they will be honest and loyal friends to you. The exchange community is vast and tightly knit. Everyone knows everyone.

Buy a used bike to get around. It saves tons of money in bus/metro fares, gives you more freedom and keeps you fit! The bike culture here is insane but I love it. Try to plan your travels ahead of time to get the best rates. And try not go in a really big group! As fun as it sounds its IMPOSSIBLE to make decisions with a dozen people together. Your mobile phone will be your lifeline. Everyone texts each other because its cheaper. The city is notoriously safe, but never leave your bag down at a club! Try not to tie yourself down by just hanging out with people from your home uni or country. Go out, make friends, have fun!!

Recomendaciones de cursos
The university definitely doesn't make it so easy for you to navigate their system that's mostly in Danish (or full of broken links in English), and I've had some secretaries get angry at me because I keep calling for help! But most are friendly and your instructors especially are willing to help you. I love the seminar format in most of my classes- 10 or 20 students with the instructor allows for a lot of interaction. No problems at all with the language, all Danes will speak perfect Danish. Could offer more courses in English, but this depends on your faculty. I think the best assortment was with Law.

Try not to put things off to the last minute! But I really enjoyed the variety in ways of assessment. I'm used to getting all multiple choice exams back home and here I've gotten written essays, multiple choice and oral exams.

Try to learn Danish! It really helps and truly makes you feel more a part of the city. The majority of exchange students don't bother to learn the language but the Danes really appreciate if you make an effort. Take the intro language course at least, it helps!

Costumbres personales de gasto
Copenhagen is a notoriously expensive city to live in. The only thing that is cheaper here is the beer! Be prepared, but if you know where to shop then you'll get by. Take advantage of kitchen clubs with your Danish floormates (where each week someone takes a turn to cook a meal) or start one with your friends. Mobile phones are really cheap to buy and top up, and use skype for calling home.

Netto and Fakta are the cheap grocery stores. And Riz Raz has a really good and cheap veggie buffet. If you're going out to a club, predrink with your friends to save money! and I would suggest to switch to a bank account that allows for unlimited ATM withdrawls worldwide- saves tons of money on fees.
