Between this university and that of LU, I advise RISEBA because they do not pay attention to the presence in class and this kind of thing. Afterwards, I personally met some very good friends at this university but I know that there are many more students in LU as well as more choices at the course level. But if you are not there to go to class, it’s better to go to RISEBA because you will always end up meeting those from LU with other occasions.

Le "campus" est juste un bâtiment avec des salles de cours et une machine à café mais y a un magasin pour acheter des croissants et du café juste à côté. L'université était pas mauvaise mais pas exceptionnel non plus.

I would gladly pick the same university for another exchange. The teachers, the students, the building and campus were awesome.

The campus is not cool, really small, and there are no associations or groups on the campus
