Personal savings

I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits
The food was cheaper but there were so many new products I wanted to try. Again the actual cost of using the telephone was cheaper, but when you are calling from the US to Europe it becomes expensive.

Housing
Type of housing: Quad apartment (4 students) shared kitch and bath
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: I would not change where I lived
Why?
Living in Quad apartments allows you to meet and live with 3 people you have never met. It is very exciting and intersting. You also get to meet alot of other students living around you.

Personal comments
The quad apartment complex I lived in was very close to the university so that was a plus. The good thing about quads is that they are normally only occupied by fellow students. This way you get to meet alot of the people you will be going to school with.

Personal social experience
Personal comments
The best student bar in town would have to be Clauds. This is where students go to hand out after class and also late into the night hours. If you want to dance Tailgators is the place to go.
