Roskilde Universitet (RUC)

In France student (citizens in general actually) receive monthly a certain amount of money from the State to pay the rent. There is no such help in Denmark. On the other hand Danish students receive a grant from the State whatever their social situation is, so they do not have any special help for their accomodation. Exchange students can not benefit from this grant while in France exchange student can receive the State help for accomodation.

That was a really good experience for improving my knowledges in English in general. The work language was English, I wrote my essay in English, had my evalation with both Danish and French teachers half in French and half in English, all theses elements resulted allowed me to improve dramatically my English. I am somehow a bit disappointed by the fact that I did not really learn Danish. The fact that the majority of the population is bilingual and speak easily English doesn't help to learn the local language. That is my regret about my language experience which overall is more than positive.

A really good experience. I basically thought about 2 years of study abroad in two different universities and it ended up by two years in the same university. It tells much.

The Danish system is a bit surprising for a French person. This system gives a lot to the students, they have a lot comfort, of facilities that French student do not have. Besides the way those accomodation are organised (at least where I've been living) in a way that pushes people to meet each other. Students share a kitchen, a living room, a bar, a garden, they have to organise everything from buying salt and paper to the furnitures for the living room, a Hi-Fi etc. You learn a lot from such experience.
