Housing
Type of housing: Student Village, private hall, 4 bedrooms flat
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
First of all it is much cheaper than living in a hall. Secondly, if you found the right people to live with it is a lot of fun. Thirdly, more space, less problems with too noisy people and usually not as much first year's than in here.

Personal comments
I can not really tell much about accomodation provided by this university, because I live in a private hall, but I have seen some of the university's halls and they are very nice in general.

Personal comments
I never had any problems expressing what I wanted to say, but naturally, my English improved loads during my stay in Manchester.
As I had never been to the Northern part of England before, I had to get used to the Northern accent. I liked it a lot, and in the end, you start picking up the accent, too.
