Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
There is no better experience than to live with 500 students from all over the world at the same place. It makes it really easy to get to know new people. To live at the Hatleberg Residence made my exchange semester to the best 5 months of my life.

We got the opportunity to learn Norwegian at the NHH. I attented the course (at the beginning...) and began to make progress in speaking Norwegian. The "problem" was that EVERYBODY in Norway speaks English, so you do not get many opportunities to practice your Norwegian.
