Language of instruction: German
Was learning German a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't.

Administrative / Institutional
Personal comments
Vienna as German-speaking city offers wide chances to practice your German but also English with the international students from almost every country in the world. However, this makes the speaking German rather hard since majority of the exchange students are not able to speak German. As a result, it depends on your own motivation to contact with locals to improve your German skills.
