Commentaire personnel
English, my first and only language (right now), was the common tongue so I didn't have "a language and communication experience" worth mentioning.

Despit the fact that the dollar was stronger than the euro at the time, the cost of living in Ireland is higher (one of the highest in the world).

Évaluation globale
Si j'avais su
I wish I knew the layout of the surrounding area and its local character. It is not a bad place but there isn't much for a student to do off campus. What that means is that an exchange student does not get to intermingle with country natives, only other students who are most likely exchange students.

Critères importants pour mon choix
(1) Aucune importance – (4) Très important
Recommandation personnelle
Go to Galway or Cork instead, the schools are more integrated with the local area instead of having an "islandish" feel to them, like UL.

Traveling around Ireland is difficult, especially because you cannot really rent a car unless you're 23-25. The public transportation system is seriously lacking, which also makes it hard to catch planes from the main airport if you intend on travelling outside of Ireland. There is positives too though, like Ireland's inexpensive airline, Ryanair, which can get you to the mainland for under $150 return.

Logement
Type de logement: Sur le campus
Organisé par: Université d'accueil
Si j'y retournais je choisirais: Sur le campus
Pourquoi?
For the most obvious reason, exposure. Many of my friends were met because we lived and saw each other all the time, which wouldn't of been possible if I was rooming in some remote apartment away from campus. Plus the school and surrounding residential area is spread out and if I didn't live on campus, getting to classes of social events would have been very difficult.

Commentaire personnel
Compared to the dorms I lived in while attending my home university, those at the University of Limerick were well furnished. There was a full kitchen and two bathrooms in each suite or quad.

Commentaire personnel
The university has three pubs on campus, which is a drastic change from the puritanical dryness of my home university. It made it easy then to go "out", but the scene wasn't what I'm into (mostly loud chart-music-playing places where one goes to check out the boirds). Nancy Blakes can't be missed but getting downtone is a pain and the busses stop running kind of early (that might have changes).
