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

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!
    Important for planning – special track to cover financial mgmt requirments for
    Landshut

   Once USW receive the application you will be issued with a “conditional offer” that will
    read “120 ECTS on entry.”
   This means that you will have to have successfully completed 120 ECTS. Your
    international coordinator will confirm this to USW.
   You will then be issued with an “unconditional offer” that you will need to accept
    personally.
   Once this is done you will be contacted by the university about start dates,
    accommodation etc.
   We would like the applications to be with us by the end of March
