Course recommendations
Choose as many as possible at the beginning so that you can drop the ones you don't like later on in the semester. Otherwise you can end up being stuck in boring or badly organised courses which you have to finish to get the required points for each semester

Personal comments
It would be a good idea for students from British universities coming to study in Austria to be prepared for two semesters of near total academic freedom. It can be disorientating and lead to unproductiveness for those used to more supervision.

Family
Other sources of funding:
An ERASMUS grant
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits
I spent less for most of your 'expense categories' as most things here are a bit cheaper than in england. I spend more on telephone bills as using the telephone is more expensive here than in England. NAd I did more of it. I only used public transport her to go on short holiday as I lived very close to the university and the centre of town in Graz

Personal comments
My very inventive cost saving tip is: don't use the telephone and don't eat smoked salmon. Also, don't buy too many things.
