Make sure you live on the 32nd or 33rd of Fenwick Place, this is where most of the international students go, you will have the best time there and have friends all over the world, good for travelling!!!

Personal comments
Pogues-The Irish Bar among others has some good live music. The Grad House is worth a drink in, as is the Rogues Roost, which brews its own beers that are very nice. 'Rain' and 'Pacifico' ranked as personal fravourtes for Nightclubs although the 'Dome' isn't bad either if you get a good group in.

living accommodations are swarming around the university, so you won't have a hard time finding something, you just need to look hard to get a good deal!
