Expenses

Main source of funding:

An ERASMUS grant

Other sources of funding:

Government assistance

Work opportunities:

I worked, but it was illegal/cash in hand work

Personal spending habits

I spent a lot trying to keep in touch with friends and family. otherwise the cost of living in spain is drastically less. Perhaps the only thing that was more expensive is the food and drink sector, ie when out for dinner or out for drinks it can add up perhaps a lot more in spain than in the uk, especially as primarily in the UK we would frequent student bars. i havent found any here!

Nightlife, Telephone:

was more expensive than at home.

Travel:

was the same price as at home.

Food, Overall, Housing:

was less expensive than at home.

if you are aware that you want to be in spanish situations, you are able to, but it is easy to go with the other english students. Catalan is spoken alot around the area, its the official language of the U.

“Buena universidad”

Leonardo E

Spain, Undergraduate
Engineering, Computer, 2023

Overall

En general es una buena universidad, en cursos de TIC son bastante exigentes y no apruebas si no lo estudias a fondo. Tienen la opción de que le hagas en ingles, por experiencia propia no lo recomiendo a menos que te encante la lengua porque la mayoría de los profesores no son nativos y a veces no son lo mas claros en sus explicaciones.

Pros

Exigencia, calidad

Cons
