Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Home university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
PRIVATE HOUSES OR APARTMENTS ARE CHEAPER THAN UNIVERSITY´S HOUSES. BESIDES YOU CAN CHOOSE YOUR NEIGHBORS AND YOU HAVE MORE INDEPENDENT THAN IN UNIVERSITY´S HOUSES.

Personal comments
EDUCATION IN THE UK IS DAILY. IN THIS WAY, YOU HAVE TO WORK EVERYDAY AND FINAL EXAMS ARE NOT SO IMPORTANT. I THINK IT IS A POSITIVE ASPECT OF EDUCATION BUT TEACHERS ARE VERY HARD. ALTHOUGH THE EXAMS ARE EASY TO PASS, IS VERY DIFFICULT TO OBTAIN A GOOG MARK.
