Personal social experience
Personal comments
The best parties take place in the University Buildings, or at the International Club in Poppelsdorf.
Some good places worth to visit are:
Gum (Russian Bar) , Carpe (the best disco in town) , Pendel (the best place to chill out and eat goo food) , Cafe Blau and of course the best pizza EVER you can find it in Cala-Dor (Hauptbanhof)

Personal comments
It was really nice to live in student-dorms. I used to live in Pariser Strasse 54 which is quite far from the city centre, and from the University Campus. But the transportation was really good (strassenbahn, nachtbus, and buses allways on time). It is really close to the Rhine river, and the Bar and the Bistro really give students the opportunity to get to know each other.

Academic
Course recommendations
Teachers are very good, the only dfficulty is the language as most of the courses are in German. You have to talk to the teacher to help you out with the language
