In my opinion:
Most people loved it.
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
if you join the European Business Programme (EBP) you will go to Portsmouth, since the course of studies is INTEGRATED and features four semesters in Portsmouth. But also for other students I believe the Portsmouth Business School is recommendable.

Try to mix with people from other countries!Do not stick to people from your own country-then it's harder to adapt yourself in the new environment...it will be as if you are again at home!You don't want that...do you?

It is very fun to study in Portsmouth:
There are a lot of students
You are close to the sea and quite close to London
A lot of informations are avilable
But in England, you will face some administratrive difficulties:Health system, bank, etc...

Personal comments

THE FACILITIES AND FOOD PROVIDED WERE QUITE GOOD, THOUGH I PREFER LIVING INDEPENDENTLY IN A HOUSE RATHER THAN BEING ATTACHED TO A TIMETIBLE INA HALL OF RESIDENCE
