Overall
I wish I had known...
I might have wanted more information about all the administrative work I would have to do (register at the city hall, open a German bank account, contact company to get Internet in my room, sign 2-3 documents for housing, ...) It was a bit overwhelming and time-consuming in the beginning.

Personal recommendation
The UoC is a very good university (good academic level, nice people and teachers, interersting courses)... I would therefore recommend it to all (German speaking!) students who wish to study in Germany.

Personal recommendation
The recommendation would be not to be shocked by the size of the university and the anonymity of a single student. Also, take your notebook with a WLAN card with you in order to take advantage of the university wireless network.

If you have the opportunity, take your bike with you, Cologne is a city of bicycles.

I wish I had known...
I would have prepared it more thoroughly, because in the beginning I had some problems with bureaucracy and with the university system.

There is a real good atmosphere, allthough it is one of the biggest universities of Germany (so don't expect a small university where everybody knows everybody).

Köln is really a nice and very openminded city. Allthough it is quite big, I never felt like living in a big and unsafe city. The people are nice and love to have fun (check out the carnival). Enjoy your stay and Kölle alaaf.

I had quite a hard time getting a return ticket from Germany back to Norway, so I recommend that you buy this ticket before you go.
