Ekonomická Univerzita V Bratislave, Bratislava, Slovakia
Business Studies, Undergraduate, Erasmus
Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
I would choose campus again because I was always around other students and my friends and we formed a pleasant community. This is how we could communicate better and get to know each other closer.

Although I had the cheapest accommodation available, it was suitable in all aspects. I was a bit cold during the winter (you know Finland) but it was due to a bad insulation. Apparently I was just unlucky because the others didn't complain. Other than that everything was perfect. If I needed help, I could just go downstairs to my classmates or we could have students' sessions in the evenings because we were living next to each other. So the close distance to people was the biggest advantage no matter the time of commuting to school (20 minutes by bus)

In Tampere all the student housing it done by TOAS, it is cheap and easy. Maybe it is not very centric but it's good enough. The most central location that they give to exchange students is Läpinkääri. It's more similar to a residence and some people likes it a lot, I have to say that the area is very nice but the rooms are small.

Mairead w
University of Limerick, Limerick, Ireland
International Relations, Undergraduate, Erasmus
Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: With a family
Why?
Such an arrangement would really let me get to know Finnish people. However, many Finns are quite private, I am not sure how well a family would cope with an 'outsider'.

The housing, while I was there, was handled by a company independent of the University. They were very professional and it was quite challenging, to work with the staff. However, they were professional and spoke very good english.

Housing at this university is a little bit like a russian roulette: you can be very lucky or very unfortunate. I was more or less in the middle, living a little bit far from university but not too far, as other students. Anyways, just the fact that they look for a flat for you and save you that problem makes it worthy.

There is a company which is the responsable of finding a room or a flat for all students from University of Tampere. If you need something you must contact with them.

It was a nice single room, the flat was not so big. I shared with other two students. The suburb, Hervanta, was not so nice, and I had to take the bus every day to go to the university.
