Universitetet i Tromsø (UIT)

Of course not all student hostels/homes are like mine, there are actually two or three I wouldn't like to live, but you can change your accomodation if you want. Compared to my experiences in Germany accomodation was much better in Tromsø.

the house was big and pretty new, my room was very nice. all the system in Tromso was very well organized and easy to manage, with a big laundry and all the space for different activities. all the small houses were in a sweet campus with lot of students, many of them norvegians and many other internationals. the connection between the campus and the university was always working so well. i was entusiastic.

i didn't find any problems, first of all because my english was already very good and then because norvegians seak also a very good english. a good things was the organization of norvegian language courses for all the year and was a fantastic oportunity to learn a new language even if i didn't find the way to practice it after my study experience in Noerway.

Yes! Don't drink, don't smoke, don't buy meat too often, then you should do fine. It's hard to have the same standard of living in Norway as in Central Europe, when you want to live cheap.

Primarily I came to Norway to increase my knowledgt of my Norwegian (one of my main studies at home), but the Arctic Norway course, which is taught in English changed this a bit. Anyway my Norwegian increased as well, primarily outside classes
