Food was more expensive than in my home town and supermarkets were hard to reach. I met many new people so I wnet out a lot (not more expensive than home). I also travelled a lot, prices were slightly lower than at home.

Personal comments
Don't wire transfer money to the US. There are hefty penalties for overdrafting a US bak account. Get a US credit card for cheap online offers (they usually require US ZIP codes). Take a meal plan, it is way cheaper.

Course recommendations
Try to get into the MBA courses. They are excellent, demanding and provide good insight in the US business world.

Choose MBA courses, they are way better than undergrad courses (with the exception of the futures course with Rick Nelson)

Sally's, Blarneys and spin for night clubs/drinks were always good fun. Uptown was the hot spot with the independent, chino latinos and tonic. Dinkytown has good restaurants (Loring pasta bar).
