“Mi experiencia hasta ahora”
Maria M
Spain, Undergraduate
Public Relations / Publicity / Advertising, 2020
OverallEstoy estudiando 2do curso de Publicidad y Relaciones Públicas en esta universidad. Tengo que decir que estoy encantada con la carrera, las asignaturas y los profesores. Es una carrera que pide mucha dedicación y pasión tanto en los estudios como en las prácticas, ya que requiere una constante formación del individuo. La UAB te permite adquirir ambas cosas cuando estas estudiando.

Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
My personal recommendation for the university is to increase the Spanish courses. Because of the Catalan language it was difficult to choose the most appropriate for me courses.

Overall
Soy colombiano y me vine a Italia por falta de trabajo en mi país, y si habían trabajos pagaban muy poco... eso me hizo buscar otros horizontes, con respecto a la universidad, era muy muy buena, desde el campus hasta los profesores de cada clase...

Personal spending habits
Alright, it's kind of hard responding to these questions since it is the first ever i've been living on my own.
But what i can tell is:
Food - cheaper in Spain, but the diversity of products not as good as in France.
Telephone - we couldn't get a real contract one, because we weren't staying 18 month. so we had to get used to the prepaid cell phone. Which meant getting used to not call as much as i did back in France since Prepaid cards are really not advantageous.
Housing - the prices of rent are cheaper than in France. But compared to a couple of years ago got more higher.
Personally we had a 110m² and paid 1200euros per month divided by the 4 of us. It wasn't bad at all. Plus it was located in a great area of Barcelona.
Nightlife - obviously cheaper than in France, Paris.
Travel - cheaper because gas cost less than in France. And then because in general the standard of living is cheaper.
Overall - to me cheaper BUT still spent more than in Paris.
I would say honestly aroung 700€ is good to not worry too much about the money.

Living abroad for the first time is a difficult experience as it brings much change and you need to know how to cope alone with life in a foreign country.

Personal recommendation
The Universidad Autonoma is academically a good university but it´s location could be better as it is a long way out of the city of Barcelona and can prove to be quite isolated.

Final comments
Before studying abroad for the first time it is important to be fully aware of what is involved. Calculate living expenses, make sure you have social contacts in case you are ever in need and plan your stay, ie. places you want to visit etc. in order to make the most of your time abroad.
