My roommates were really nice, but there were leaks everywhere and mold, and the landlord isn't very cool. I don't recommend this apartment.

The atmosphere is great, lots of nice bars (the Erasmus one is Adega Leonor) and cool clubs. Follow the Instagram accounts ESN Porto and Erasmus Life Porto to catch all the Erasmus parties.

Bachelor very easy : marketing courses, market for culture, HR and economics seminar. Medium: international trade and operations management Difficult: finance and econometrics Be careful, this is a shotgun approach to choosing courses

The campus is fine, easily accessible, the teachers are lovely, but the assessments are not easy. Registration is really a hassle.

Portugal is really cheap, and for traveling it's really cheap, especially with FlixBus, for example 5 euros to go to Lisbon, etc., and there are plenty of nice cities an hour from Porto to visit in a day, like Aveiro, Amarante, Braga, etc.

Porto is so beautiful, the atmosphere is really awesome, the people are great. In winter, though, it rains a lot.My advice: live near the Trindade metro station, which goes everywhere (the university, shopping centers, etc.) and is in the center of Porto.

Honestly, if you have the chance to go to Porto, go for it, it's such a cool experience and a pint is two euros hahahah

casa da musica

it’s the end, they don’t rent anymore

il n’est plus à louer en revanche j’ai un des bons retour sur les résidence odalys

galeria de paris, 7eleven

les cours de finance sont assez dur, le niveau est assez élevé. Matière commerce international ausis est pas simple.

le campus est bien, les prof aussi et pas compliqué d’accès

le sud du portugal, lisbon, madrid, barcelone le maroc et autres villes en espagne. Les villes du portugal sont interressantes mais pour une journée

c’est très cool, métro 3€ pour tout le pass. Juste c’est pas très grand on tourne vite en rond et il pleut à partir de novembre ( il y a peu de terrasses couvertes) après la vie est pas trop trop chère

Casa da Musica, 20min from bars and school

It was nice to share a big flat but you have to find some who are clean as you and fixe rules at the begening.

Lot of bars and party organised by ESN, ELP also by my faculty at the university

I don’t have time to take portugese classes but not very important to speak the language if you english is good

all the classes are in portugese but you can ask to the teacher to speak in english, we are a lot of erasmus so they try to speak or to translater every time in english

Very easy to travel around, you can take the train in the center of Porto and in 1 hour there are very nice cities (Braga, Aveiro). Also the plane for Madeira, Faro not very expansive.

Very safety, lot of transport, rainy, lot of colors, welcoming

very dificult to understand portugese, not the same as spanish but very one speak english

Honestly I like where I live this year, it is perfectly located, I have everything I need near me. If I had to choose again, I will choose the same place but it's nice too to go to residence like Odalys for example (but more expensive), there are well located and very clean with equipment. There are a lot of students there.

Best party street is Galleria De Paris and the streets near, you can find bar (Baixa, Stone's, Base,...) and nightclub (MoreClub, PlanoB, Districkt, Lust). There are nice chill bar near the Douro too to enjoy the view (Bosco for exemple).

Every course are interesting, however it depends on your level, I don't recommend to take Econometrics methods which is very complicated. I take Portuguese course that are very nice (Formula of 60euros)

Registration easy and accessible, city tour proposed. Nice classroom, teachers, and campus. very accessible in transports (5min from the tramway - Pole universitario)

I went to Lisbon, Amarante, Aveiro and Albufeira in Portugal, is very accessible in Flixbus and very cheap (between 6-10 euros). And from Porto you can go by car in Spain.

It's rainy but not cold (be in t-shirt in October), I'm a girl and I can say it's safe and I feel confident to go out by night. Portuguese people are very nice but don't talk always English so it's hard to make you understandable.

Enjoy your Erasmus, time spend very fast.
