Housing
Type of housing: An individual lease in a four persons apartment
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
As a Graduate student, it's better to live in an apartment, rooms in the campus are designed for undergraduate students.

Personal comments
I live in a complex called "La Mancha". Despite the mess inside the apartment, there is a good international atmosphere and also it is located at five minutes by walk from the campus.

Personal comments
In the beginning I would have liked something organised for all international students. I had to find out for myself. This was also ok, but it is lways nice if the host university organises something for their guest students.

Americans are too proud and they don't like to talk to Asian students! But not all Asians cannot speak English and we are not so stupid as you think...

I thought my Englsih was perfect, but I got a lot of comments on especially my writing skills. Also the strange accents and the really fast way of talking were a new experience in the beginning. But overall, I didn't experience many problems
