Università Bocconi

first month was kind of tough, then i was amazed by the quick progress my language skills made

life in milan is expensive! buy at supermarkets outside the centre, things are considerably cheaper there

at first glance milan might appear greyish and unfriendly. in fact, i found it much different from other italian cities i had been to earlier (florence, rome, . . .). however, you will find out that milan, besides being noisy and stressful can be an extremely interesting place to live. many interesting places are near - i loved the ligurian cost with places like camogli, santa margherita or noli. there is such a lot of beautiful and interesting places in italy, try to see as much of them as possible!

university provided accomodation is far from satisfactory(availability, price, quality); university support for search for private accomodation is available - however they refuse to send you their housing list, therefore you can only use it after your arrival to milan; private offers posted on pinwall at university

milan is a cool place, especially at night; the student network "organises" a party location for each day of the week except monday - so plenty to do. besides there is a huge number of places, from trendy to relaxed, just look around and find your favourite place - a booklet named "02" lists the spots to be(is available in bars and cafes across town)
