The first week I was struggeling a little bit, because the professors were speaking with a slang and really fast. However, the second week was no problem at all. I got used to it and after 2 weeks I was fully able to listen and write at the same time, like in German. You are confronted the whole time with English and therefore you get really fast into it.

Clubs or bars on Grand River Avenue. There are plenty of good locations. Every Thursday evening: Sparty's - people who are under age are also allowed to get in there on that day.
Spartan Spirit for new students at the beginning of the semester in the Spartan stadium. Planetarium and museum on campus. Welcome dinner for international students - Kellogg Center.
It is a good idea to register for more courses than needed because at the beginning it is possible to go to all courses and then after the first week make your choice. There are a lot of exams during the semester so it is helpful to read the chapters in the books before class or at least after each class.

There were hardly any cafés there, which surprised me, but there were a lot of bars with different music-styles. The problem was that hanging around in bars was "IN" when I was 16, there are hardly any quiet bars for talking and relaxing. However,these bars, that can be reached by feet in 10 minutes, are full every weekend - you are never alone :-)

In communicating with Americans you learn a lot of expressions you would not learn in class. It is helpful to know some phrases. In class you learn a lot of technical terms which will help you in your future job. The Americans also tell you when you make any mistakes in pronunciation and so on.
