Universität Karlsruhe

Some people ignore student parties, while others ignore bars and clubs. For University residences, I recommend Hadiko; as for bars, Café Wien and Ludwigsplatz; clubs... Carambolage and Krokokeller

Though housing is seldom provided by this university, what they offered me was in pretty good shape and otherwise I couldn't have met "deeply" german people!

Quite hard at the beginning to understand them because of the dialect they spoke. German used at the university was more "academic" so to speak, so as long as you know technical vocabulary should be no problem

The city is small, everything is reachable within foot or bike distance. People there can be disappointing. Some locals are really nice, but some others do not show any enthusiasm for foreigners nor exchange students. Nevertheless, as usual, you hang out with international people and just a few locals. Life in Karlsruhe is cheap, and due to its location in the very center of Europe, you can travel everywhere. Nightlife is, in my opinion, good when you go to Student parties - clubs here are not Ibiza clubs... Advice: though shared appartments are pretty cheap, in september there is a fierce competition to get one, when all the students arrive. Prioritize this aspect.
