Czech is such a difficult language to learn that overall the locals appreciate an effort to speak in it, but assuming they speak English, they'll switch over to that.
Travel was the only big budget item as the other items were included in the fees and the cheap prices kept me from overspending. I traveled around Europe and within the CZ a lot for long weekends, spring break, and for a few weeks after my semester in Prague ended.

Commentaire personnel
Don't go to the ATM ("Bankomat") too often as the exchange rate fluctuates and there are fees attached to using a non-home bank's ATM.
I wish I knew how difficult it would be to meet locals. Meeting people while traveling was easy, such as in hostels, bars, and on tours, but in Prague, the complexity of the culture as well as the language barrier prevented a meeting more locals.

Recommandation personnelle
Don't expect a very rigorous course of study, as the English-speaking department is rather new and not the focus of the university. Take classes that you might not take -- art history, theatre -- to experience Czech culture.

Go to Berlin -- 4 hours from Prague.
Europe is still cold in May, so bring a warm jacket.
Type de logement: Off campus dorm for international students
Organisé par: Université d'accueil
Si j'y retournais je choisirais: Same dorm
Pourquoi?
While it wasn't physically the best location, living in an apartment would have separated me from other international students. Also, homestays we not available through my program but I would definitely be interested in doing one in the future.

The building was very communist, but included all of the essentials. The beds were hard as rock, but I got used to that. The dorm was certainly part of the overall experience.

I really enjoyed a jazz club called U Maleho Glena (At Little Glen's) that featured live jazz/blues every night in a tiny but cozy downstairs room. Bar Bar was my favorite, relaxed bar and a really good spot to chat or have lively debates with friends. Club Vagon was a good rock club. German and Eastern European bands were features along with cover bands of the Beatles, the Stones, and Nirvana. The beer here was very cheap and the crowd was twentysomethings.
