Comentario personal
We went to a pub called 'Thirst' a lot. (Well, when we had time in between our studies, which were very rigorous!) Also a club right across the way. The name, I forget. My apartment was right on High Street. There are lots of great shops along the way, if you're into that. Eat a cookie at 'Ben's Cookies' in the Covered Market -- they are ridiculously good. Go inside Christ Church if you can (it's closed to outside visitors). It's where 'Harry Potter' was filmed. Go to the college bops. I found the name funny at first, but I had a great time each time I went. Oxford is beautiful, but make sure you travel as much as you can. Scotland and Ireland are gorgeous.

Alojamiento
Tipo de alojamiento: Piso o apartamento
Organizado por: Universidad de origen
Si volviera, eligiría: En el campus
¿Por qué?
The apartment I was staying in was pretty much 'on campus' (Oxford's colleges are spread throughout the city): it was right across from Magdalen college, the college I was affiliated with during my stay in the UK. I was very much a part of the college social and academic scene -- I ate in the college dining hall, joined the rowing team, hung out in the JCR, among other things -- but I always wondered what it would be like to actually live in the dorms. I suppose, then, I'd be looking for an experience different from the one I already had.

The apartment I stayed in with the other Stanford students was fabulous. It was well situated, well furnished (my room was adorable, besides being comfortable and warm) and well run. We were served tea and pastries everyday at 4 on the dot by Pat, our 'house mum'. The staff was so wonderful.

Costumbres personales de gasto
The conversion rates are terrible, and the prices don't seem (to me, anyway) to reflect that conversion! The Euro works better with the dollar.

Estudios
Recomendaciones de cursos
We had fewer courses to choose from, through a special arrangement made by Stanford, but even then we couldn't go wrong. It was a chance for us to explore interests we wouldn't normally have time or opportunity to back at home.

Not at all. Academic standards in the UK are set very high, which I appreciated and learned a great deal from.

¿Fue aprender Inglés fue un factor importante de elección?
No, no lo fue.
Comentario personal
No problem at all. It was interesting getting used to certain words and catchphrases though (e.g. french fries are 'chips', chips are 'crisps').
