Course recommendations
There is better course availability in the fall (Wintersemester, starting in September/October), however there are always enough courses available to make it worthwhile. Due to the lack of available courses in the spring, I took a masters course.

Personal comments
There's the weekly Pflaumenbaum pub outing for exchange students. The uni parties are packed out. But Paderborn doesn't have much of a nightlife. But the uni organises tons of activities and trips for exchange students. These trips were the highlights of my stay.

Mainly just an essay or exam at the end of the semester. Virtually no assessments during the semester. You need to be self-motivated!

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I just like new experiences, although this choice would be a bit more expensive.

I was really happy about my neighbors at the student residence. It really was an international experience with people all around the world, not only german people.
