Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
There are plenty of rooms in shared apartments to choose from, if you just have time to look around and compare.

Personal comments
There is no need for the university to offer accommodation because the best and cheapest rooms can be easily found from the private markets: just check out the public telephones and bus stops! I should have been more patient with my search.

Course recommendations

Personal comments
Teachers should be more pacient to foreign students, they treated us as if we didn't exist and the University should have had more essays and projects, not only a final semester exam

Central Spain is considerably cheaper than the coasts and Madrid. Salamanca is a great spot for students on a budget.
