Overall
I wish I had known...
I wish that my home university would have told me how the teaching in Witten was before going there. I was not used to that style and I had difficulties to adapt. Also choosing the courses would have been easier if my home university would have arranged it earlier.

In my opinion:
I loved it but I'm not sure everybody would.
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
if you like debating and not comming to a real conclusion you will love it!! But if you are more the practical person, you better stay home!

Final comments
If you have the possibility to take your car with, do so, Witten is small and there is nothing to do there, but Bochum and Dortmund are not far (by car).
The semester Ticket also allows you to take the train and the bus whenever you want (you can even travel to Düsseldorf for free!).
If you don´t have a car, you can buy a cheap bike at the Train station, which will allow you to be more independant (busses run every 20 minutes and there is not Tube there).

Witten should make it easier for international students to get into the courses, and the teachers should also be more patient when they are asked some questions!!

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: flat sharing
Why?
Because Witten is a small city and there is nothing to do, and if you live alone it can be boring.

Personal comments
All in all the University helped to find the accomodation. One has to be carefull in Germany, because normally the flats are rented empty not like in London where you have a bed and a table. So I would recommend to find people who are going abroad want to rent their flat for that time. (that is what I did)
