Personal recommendation
I liked Pecs a lot, it is really a beautiful town, especially when it becomes spring and summer, the country is so beautiful then! And because it is situated in the south you have easy access to Croatia, which is a totally different country. Oh take toiletpaper with you to hungary because many places don't have and prepare yourself that the toilets don't have lockers, which is really annoying at the beginning but everything gets familiar...

During my experience abroad, I ... (1) Never – (4) A lot
IT was interesting and I felt I progressed further than I thought possible. With the help of the study skills department I feel confident to take my career in a new direction. The college allowed me all the access I needed and the small scale of the college provided a family atmosphere.
The course leader is excellent, but the course has been understaffed for much of the time. This impacted on availability to tutoring hours. The final show which is important for the future was not publicised properly by the college and very few people saw it as a result. This was very disappointing. The lectures were exciting and informative and the course leader was assessable. The accessible of the whole college was good, which means one could work in any media. Learning support was well managed and useful.

“A quiet place”

Overall
The city is rather quiet and seems to a place for study oriented students and in the first semester, you might not feel the intensity of the course since the work load won't be heavy but that changes in the 2nd semester showing you that they use the first semester to settle you down and introduce you calmly to the course. The teachers put in plenty of effort to make sure all the students understand the work and always try to create time for outside class consultation though the issue comes in looking for outside class activities to take part in. These opportunities have to be rather looked for since they won't be at your door step upon entering the university.
