Student Testimonials
- Campus Life
-
“Both ends of the support system, the teams from Carleton and Erasmus were invaluable in ensuring my transition was as painless as possible. The host school’s support team was also helpful in explaining the foreign education system and making sure my schedule and courses made sense.” – Winter 2022, Bachelor of Architecture
- Academic Environment
-
“I would encourage people to browse the full breadth of courses the university has to offer. I appreciated being able to get a foreign point of view on different topics as it offered opinions and context I wouldn’t have been able to get exposure to otherwise. In terms of content delivery and course deliverables, the styles were similar enough where I didn’t feel any sense of awkward transition.” – Winter 2022, Bachelor of Architecture
- Housing Experience
-
“Due to COVID-19, I was placed in a vacant room in a regular first year accommodation with students who actually had already been immersed in the city. I absolutely loved this as they were able to give me all of the inside information and highlight the less touristy things I needed to see in my short time there.” – Winter 2022, Bachelor of Architecture
- Setting Up Phone and Bank Account
-
“I didn’t need anything more than a credit card and a small envelope of cash as a backup. While there are fees for international purchases they were insignificant enough that they
just sort of blended into the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar. In terms of a cell plan I was fortunate enough to be able to purchase a plan through my service provider that had the specs I needed to get by. As I understand it, you can also purchase very cheap EU sim cards while over there.” – Winter 2022, Bachelor of Architecture
- Travel Tips
-
“Outside of the UK, travel through the EU is almost seamless and ridiculously cheap. For Liverpool specifically, the harbour and waterfront have developed into the main tourist area with spots like the Museum of Liverpool, Tate Modern and others are all worth exploring as a tourist. If you’re a fan of the Beatles you’re in the right place, check out Cavern street or walk literally anywhere and odds are you’ll find something. But also just wandering around checking out the churches (hard to miss), local architecture and just observing the culture I found just as interesting. Be sure to catch a football game in any environment you can, whether its at Anfield or the pub down the road for a rollercoaster of emotions.” – Winter 2022, Bachelor of Architecture
