I wish I had known...
Not really. You cannot prepare yourself. I am glad I did not make any expectations or assume what it would be like. I just let it all in and enjoyed myself!

Personal recommendation
This university will make you feel right at home. Everyone (especially Paco, who is a personal assistent to every student) will do anything it takes to make you comfortable. It is unforgettable. The people are wonderful, the classes are small, and the professors are brilliant.

Final comments
I strongly recommend chosing Suffolk University Madrid campus because you are within a small, close-knit environment yet still have the freedom to branch out and expose yourself to Madrid. My best advice would be to chose a school such as Suffolk University because you have the cogent support of the staff and students and still have the ability to be totally independent.

I lived in a very large apartment with three other girls. We always had our space and felt very spoilt because our apartment was so nice and large.
