Tips from other LA-students (2017) Overall Cardiff is in average cheaper than other UK cities! Cheapest opions are private rooms in shared houses in Pontypridd – very close to the campus (starts by 100 GPB a months) „Best“ option by students opinon: Shared houses in Cathays Cathays is in Cardiff and a 20 minute train ride to the Pontypridd/Treforest Campus. The area of Cathays, given its proximity to most of Cardiff University's teaching sites and University Hospital of Wales, has seen a dramatic fall in owner-occupation, with a high proportion of houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) which are let through private landlords and letting agencies to the large student population. 2012 figures available Formatvorlage desofUntertitelmasters under the Freedom Information Act show thatdurch over 70%klicken of the houses in Cathays are now HMOs.

General information At lot of assignments – less exams (Pls check the module descriptions on the web site – some LA students have been a little bit surpriesed on number of assignments) Classes are international – not so much contact to „original“ UK-students (issue is adressed – hope to get an improvement next year); -> best to find shared houses with UK students or join the sports clubs on campus Landshut students should decide until March if they would like to go to the University of South Wales and until April what is there specialisation!
