There are many very nice clubs, cafes, theatres, tapas bars and so on in Madrid. Walk around and you will always find something new and exciting. Do not miss out on superclubs Pacha and Joy though. Buy the weekly Guía del Ocio for an update on what is happening in the city. Make sure to visit the many good museums.

You have to solve yourself the housing when you arrive to the University. There is no help from the university.

L'université donne une liste d'appartements, et éventuellement aide à trouver des collocataires dans la même université. Cependant, on trouve souvent mieux en cherchant par ses propres moyens.
