Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: A room exchange
Why?
Because I was not involved in the local studentlive. I lived with a lot of other international students in the same appartment. It was great but I didn't have any idea about normal student live in USA.

Overall
The campus at Castle House and Angier Street are great! computer rooms, audience, and classrooms are spacious and comfortable. Teachers are very engaged and demonstrate a sincere interest to deal with international students.
There are several social events to gather all the students during the year as well as career fairs with relevant information.
Undoubtedly it is a good institution with a significant reputation within the market.

Don't treat students like little kids. They realy want you to come to all the classes and they check if you are there.

“Pathetic and Disgusting”

Overall
this school is of little help to your career. The syllabus and learnings, professors and their teaching style, is not as what should be in a Master's course. I feel I wasted an entire year and many Euros on this college. It's just about money to them. My course mentioned on its website that no freshers would be allowed in the course, and when i joined i was surprised to see so many freshers. On complaining the college said: "Newly graduated applicants will not be accepted onto the programme’ it is meant that there should be 3 months gap between final exams of a bachelors degree and the particular course start date. It does not relate to work experience.". Thats clearly a fraud and misrepresentation. You would not learn anything here and just have to listen to the constant taunts about your country from some idiot-headed professors. Plus jobs are really tough to find, even though i have 40 months of work experiece, this DBS tag and being non-European almost kills my career here. DONT ENROLL!
