The department of international relations of the host university organised everything, so i did not have to care about looking for housing.

Course recommendations
Try to get to Cologne a few weeks before the start of classes, as organising your courses is a little complicated at a university with 65,000 students.

I was used to more interaction between students and teachers from the Stockholm School of Economics, but my overall impression from the university of Cologne was OK.

Course recommendations
CEMS courses are smaller classes and thus better to follow, especially in the beginning when your German is not yet very good. One month before semester starts you can follow german language courses for free at the university!

If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I lived in only 10 minutes from the university, but the surrounding looked like a suburb. Everything was clean and quiet, I had a wonderful view of the garden with grown trees. Becides, my co-habitants were very nice people.

Housing
Type of housing: WG
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: A room exchange
Why?
I enjoyed living in a WG. I shared the place with 5 other people and three of them were German so I had the opportunity to practice my German and meet lots of German friends through them which was great! Also, super cheap!
