Well housing is generally a little bit more expensive in the Netherlands. When it comes to food it depends on the quality you chose. Expenditures for travelling are higher as most of the exchange students try to travel as much as possible during week ends! Compared to the very costly Clubs in Vienna and the prices for drinks in the city center of Vienna in general - going out in Maastricht is cheaper than in Vienna.

Course recommendations
It is very important be fluent in English before going to study there, it is not a place to learn English, you are required a high level to pass your courses. Courses are very interactive and your participation level counts, studying before the session takes place is crucial and assistance is compulsory.
