The accommodition at the "Karl-Franzens-Universität" was quite allright, we could use all the computers. The accommodation was actually better than at my home university.

You have one semester to do the project, so don't do it the last week otherwise you won't even have time to sleep! But it doesn't take so much time either. And don't forget you're not there to stay with your books all the time: you can do that at home.

Was just back in Graz last month and it looks like the Bermuda Dreiecke is still the center of night life and coffee house alike. Found a great new chocolataria that many of the natives didn't even know existed yet!!

Try to decide the courses you will attend before they start. I had no idea at the beginning and it was very confusing!

Course recommendations
It is best to first visit the course a few times before deciding which course to take. The level of the language-courses that are open to all students is very low.If you want to attend a seminar, make sure that you can speak German pretty good. They expect you to participate actively.

It would be better if the shedules were more complete. Some courses that were on the shedule weren´t thaught in the wintersemester and the roomnumbers and the hours weren´t always correct. It would also be better if the examsystem were less chaotic. Sometimes I didn´t know the exact date of the exam two weeks before it would take place. It is hard to make a proper planning that way.

First take more courses than you plan to pass so you can later drop the ones you don't like. Oral exams were better for me, because at my home university we have more time to write the exams than in Graz, so I really didn't have enough time to write everything down in German in like 20-30 mins.
