Miguel L
ISEG-Instituto Superior de Economia e Gestão, Lisbon, Portugal
Business Studies, Undergraduate, Erasmus
Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
There are many reasons.I ll give two as an example.1.Your are far more independent you live in a house than on campus.For example,on campus you have to have dinner until for example 18h30,which is quite early.In a house you don depend on anybody.
On campus you have less privacy and more noise.But on the other hand as a Erasmus or international student it is easier to meet peolple and make friends on campus.

Personal comments
The University helped me to find a proper house by searching all the houses available in Nottingham that would be proper for a student to live.
They help me,trying to find my house,talking to the landlords and so on.
The housing at the Universiy of Nottingham was excellent.
