Yes, good place and close to metro,school and beach

Acurella, Rumbo, Umbracle. Also trips to Madrid, Ibiza and Barcelona

Did not do classes, I was apart of an EPS project. The project where worth 30 etc and was really fun and worth it. I really recommend.

Yes, the facillity was perfect with alot of food places and places to work out like football,padel and tennis which was free for students to rent. Sometimes a bit hard to find free time slots but overall really good

Madrid for sure, especially with train. Cheap and good city if you like football. Also ibiza if you want to party.

Good transportation and a good study city with alot of different students. I atleast felt very safe and I am from a real small city from Finland and I am also a guy, but the girls I have talked to said that they also felt safe in the city.

Learn the basic spanish words, explore the city with friends and higlight places on google map if you like them.

Yes, straight forwards and reliable

Many places to visit and lots of organisations that help you meet other exchange students. Night life is also very active

They had classes in english or spanish, the classes were as expected and very accommodating for exchange students

registration was easy and finding the buildings. There are buildings around the city but walking distance between them all. I was lucky in picking an apartment near my building but it was just by luck so it'd be useful to find out what building you'll have your classes so you can find somewhere close by, but also transport is really good here

it is very easy to explore valencia due to the transport and it is a very walkable city. there are also erasmus companies that host day/weekend trips for a good price- i have travelled to alicante and peniscola with happyerasmus

Transport is cheap and you can get top up cards and monthly cards which is good Go out and take part in events around the city- people are very friendly. In comparison to the UK it is a little cheaper especially accommodation

Have funn:)

Yes. The only thing is they are quite tight on security. You can only have two visitors at one time and only one person can stay over for a maximum of 3 nights before they have to pay an extra fee. Also bear in mind that the pool is closed from October to May.

I love a little local bar called L’Origen and a great tapas place called La Murta. Personally, I enjoy Havana club and Maya. For specific events follow the Happy Erasmus Valencia - they have something on almost every day.

I studied Psychology so all my classes are in this field. I very much enjoyed doing clinical psychology however I was not so keen on Psychometrics as it was very different to how I had done it before.

The campus was very nice. The registration was a little difficult in terms of sorting out my timetable but the Univeristy is very helpful. I would defo pick the same uni again.

I’ve only been to Seville so far which was lovely! However, I do recommend booking long distance trains in advance as they can get expensive if you book closer to the time.

The transport is very efficient! A lot of people also cycle to get around as there are cycle lanes that run all throughout the city. I would say the cost of living is very cheap however as soon as you get into Old Town there is a significant increase in prices! I’ve stuck to the Benimaclet area which is filled with students and the prices there reflect that!

Nothing really. Just make the most of it, perhaps make a little list of places you want to go/things you want to do so that you can tick them off throughout the year.

10min walking from the university, 5min walking from the metro to go in 20min in the center and 15min away from the beach and clubs

this is the link for one of the rooms (I was in the H1, biggest one): https://helloroom.es/properties/jose-mongrell-h4/

Yes, you have for each room your private bathroom, it's kind of modern and the neighbourhood is really nice for university student at UV and UPV

Umbracle (really nice looking but not the best one for the atmosphere), Marina (good but a bit expensive), Akuarela - Comittee - Diva - Nice clubs where it costs less than 3 euros where you are erasmus student. Rumbo144 good if you like latino music but the queue and the entrance is one of the worst I have ever seen

Finance classes are nice at upv

Good university, very modern with good teachers. I would pick the same univ if I had to do it again. However, the department sport is not that well managed.

Not so much destination from valencia airport, by that I mean you have a very low number of choice in flights to move around. Madrid and Barcelona can be done in 2 hours of train or even by car in 3,5hours

Cost of living, clubs, the vibes, the beach. Also that the center (ciutat vella) is really nice. Difference in the neighbourhood. There are a huge amount of bar/restaurant

In Ayora the subway station

Rooms4valencia

Yes, I would definitely recommend it. The apartments were great — I changed twice during my exchange, and each time everything went well. The locations were also ideal, close to everything I needed.

Valencia is amazing for nightlife and student life in general. I honestly think it’s one of the best student cities in Europe, it’s affordable, there’s always something going on, and there are so many events organized for Erasmus students (like @Erasmuslifevalencia). The city is full of great bars and restaurants too!

I was in the finance track, so my experience is quite specific. Overall, the courses were good — not amazing, but interesting. I particularly enjoyed Financial Instruments, International Finance, and Financial Risk Management.

The registration process went smoothly, but the administration isn’t very responsive and it can be quite hard to get in touch with them. So I’m not sure I would choose the same university again.

There are so many great trips you can take from Valencia! The airport is really close to the city, which makes it super easy to travel. You can also take cheap buses to places like Barcelona and many other destinations around Spain.

Valencia has so much to offer! It’s a vibrant, lively city with a great mix of culture, history, and modern life. There are tons of restaurants and bars, and you definitely have to experience Las Fallas it’s amazing. The city is full of young people, and the old town/center is really beautiful. For getting around, public transport is free for under-30s, and there’s a city bike system with cheap subscriptions.

Amistat, Valencia

Rooms4Valencia

Yes, it is located between the city center and the university. Metro and buses are near too.

Umbracle, Marina, Akuarela, Diva, Mercat Central de Valencia, St-Patrick's Pub, Voltereta Bali, Voltereta Manhattan, Son Tommaso

Finance track for the bachelor in international business is quite hard but feasible.

Tarrongers campus is good and well located.

You can travel with happy Erasmus or Erasmus Life Valencia. They organise travels to Andalusia, Morocco... with advantageous prices.

Need to take a meeting at metrobusvalencia to take a free public transports subscription since you're under 30 years old. Night club entrances can be hold for one euro on happy Erasmus or Erasmus life for Erasmus students.

Football matchs at the Mestalla stadium can be amazing. Visit the ciudad of ciencias is a thing to do. The best beach to go is the Malva-rossa. you can go to Madrid or Barcelona by train or bus easily.

In malvarosa, 1 min from the beach, 10 min from the university

on idealista (app for rent in Spain)

Was not really modern but was well equiped However not ideal for a co-living of 3 persons

Bar for football games : Saints&scholars Rooftop : Atenea Clubs : Diva, umbracle (from may to September), mya, marina beach club (for Sunday afternoon better)

I would recommend going to classes in link to your speciality. In my cases I liked strategy courses and economy

campus is ok but not really modern Registration is really well explained and the process really easy

You can choose to go by train or car to Barcelona and Madrid : really easy If you want to take the opportunity of going more south we went to Marrakech for just 130 euros per persons (4 days) with plane and house

Transport is free for students and well organised The beach is a must go as it’s really big and every students are in the beach from may to September If you like padel, it’s almost free at the university (2.85 euros per person for 1h30) compared to france The city centre is amazing

In El Cabanyal, near to the beach and the university

Facebook, website

For me, being close to the beach was the best decision because you can take a walk or run very easily. Also there are several buses and trams to go to the city centre or the university.

There are many places to socialise or take a drink with friends. In Spain there are bars in all city corners. I can recommend to try at least one time because of decorations and the good atmosphere: the Marina Beach Club; the Umbracle; Mia; La Diva

Finance classes are more complex and you need to study a bit more than other subjects.

The campus is large with a big library. There are several restaurants and bars in the campus.

There are a lot of fights from Valencia to many cities in Spain and Europe. There is a large network of buses to visit Spain.

Valencia is quite a safe place compared to other places in Spain and Europe. Food is delicious and you can find good places for cheap.
