I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits
Because euro is much more expensive than RMB... And the study is so busy, I don't really have much time for Nightlife or Travel. As for the Telephone, I use MSN instead to save money. :)

host lanuage: Dutch

In my opinion:
I loved it but I'm not sure everybody would.
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
First of all,the international student profile could have been more diversified.
Secondly, the scholarship should have been more available, as a Chinese student I couldn't access to any scholarship in the second year!
The email university distribute should have been in both Dutch and English instead of only in Dutch.
Last but not least, the university could have done better in help the students with finding interships.
