Administrative / Institutional
Personal comments
N/A, Danish is my first language.
A foreigner who does not speak Danish might find interaction with regular Danish student difficult. All though all Danish people speak English they tend to not wanting to maka an effort in communication with foreigners.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
In my opinion, it is easier to meet other students that are in the same situation as you are if you live close to them. The area where I was living was somehow outside the main students area.

The university provides an housing offer to every Erasmus student and that makes the task of arranging a place to stay much easier. In fact, the housing situation in Copenhagen is very complicated because there is a shortage of accomodation for foreign students an the prices are quite high.
