Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I like the freedom that it gave me and also I like it because I lived in a neighborhood a bit outside of the city so I was able to interact with local people and thus learn the language and culture better.

I was impressed at housing at John Cabot. While the cost was not greatI do think that I got what I paid for. All apartments I looked at were clean and spacious.

What makes JCU such an academically and culturally rich university is its student body and professors. Additionally, JCU combined the best qualities of an American liberal arts college with the history and culture of the Eternal City, which have challenged me both personally and professionally.
