Final comments
Lausanne is a perfect place to start you travel trips. The next airport (Geneve) is only 1 hour away by train. You can visit France easily by taking the boat across the lake. Going skiing is easy even by train you can get anywhere in the alps. In the summer you will find very nice beaches at the lake and the water is clean.

Personal comments
You can sign up for a dorm room, but in reality this has no effect. Instead, the best way to get a room is to go to the university dormatory administration office and beg for a room. It is my experience, that this approach is far more effective than doing things the orderly way. Because I did not follow these rather primitive methods, I ended up having to find an appartment, which was quite a struggle, but also a good experience.

Academic
Course recommendations
Try to get in touch with the assistants everytime you need it, because they are quite accessible, much more than professors. Be prepared to plenty of projects and exercises throgouhout the course.

Interaction with international students
Interaction with local students
Personal comments
They should try to promote more the interaction with local students, the contact is quite reduced, and the system does not help at all.
