Queen Mary & Westfield College - University of London (QMW)

A journey to Brighton and the Cotswolds is highly recommendable; from London you can easily get anywhere.

Favorite night spots? Too many to mention! Rather than list them all, just check Time Out. They did an awesome job of previewing events and listing things. Best cafe? I don't think I ever ate at a cafe, usually just the pubs and fast food places. Food was expensive, but there are tons of great restaurants and such. Also, too many great events to list. But definitely do the Guy Fawkes fireworks, promenades, all the touristy stuff because it gives you pictures to show the parents when you get home... But the best advice I can give is to just get off at a random tube station and walk. It's amazing what you'll find.

I did not study there for a long period and I did know the language pretty well already. So I could not improve my skills so much.

The accomodations were great--always kept very clean, and with relatively spacious single rooms--which is a change from sharing rooms at a US university, of course. Great location on campus. In general, quite nice and probably much better than what I would have found on my own.
