I'm an American undergraduate student currently studying in France through ISEP. I have created a wiki to allow students who have already studied through an ISEP program or who are currently studying in an ISEP program to share information they have gathered during their experiences. Students often find themselves lost or anxious for information about their programs a few months before departure as well as the first few weeks in their host country. The information on the wiki could help students who are currently participating in ISEP programs or who are going to depart for a program in the coming months. This wiki is not affiliated with ISEP Central.
http://isep.wikispot.org/
You can add information to the page created for the countries where you have studied. The universities pages are also good places to share information specific to the city where you studied. I have created pages for all participating ISEP universities in the United States and abroad, including your university's program. Each page has suggested headings and topics, but you may share whatever information you feel will be helpful to current and future students participating in ISEP programs. Thank you for your help!

Hi, I'm an english student coming over to Valencia for a semester in September. The accomodation page is confusing me on here. To reply to people advertising accomodation, do you have to pay?

Hi Dan! I had the experience of looking for flats here in Spain (Granada) and my advice is not to go into a flat before you have seen it live... because sometimes you find some things that you didn't expect to find... if you can't go to Valencia before september, the best option may be look for a hostel or a student's residence for the first days and look for a flat when you are already there.

Hi my name is Laura, I’m currently studying at the ULB in Brussels. Next year I’ll be studying lenguas modernas y sus literaturas at the University of Valencia during the first semester (September 2012 >January 2013). I can’t wait to get there. I'm looking to meet new people through this forum before I'm actually IN Valencia. Also, I'd love to share accomodation with erasmus students while I'm there. If anyone is looking for a flatmate ;)

Hi Greg, I will be in 'Facultat de Filologia'. Although my university has said that the courses I can take there are quite flexible. In particular I want to take Spanish & German classes. I have not studied German in some years but I love it. It is nice to see already that we have a few different nationalities here. What about you Greg?

Hi Daniel,
I study Filología Hispánica in Facultad de Filología, and if you really want to learn spanish I recommend you the couses "Norma y uso correcto del español" with Professor Adela García (or in "valencianish" Norma i ús correcte de l'espanyol), "Morfología española" (very usefull, but a little complicated), Sintaxis española (but the group with Professor Javier Satorre), and even Lexicografía española (this one is really boring and for me is more a trouble than a pleasure, but maybe for erasmus students... it's up to you). But whatever you do, don't take Semántica or Pragmática española! They are by far the most complicated courses you can take and nobody pass them. Linguistics may be interesting and easy to pass with Professor Ricard Morant, but more complicated with others. At last, if you are interested in literature, there's a veary interesting course called "Guía de lectura del texto literario" with Professor Jaume Peris. You have to read in spanish, but the Professor is very very involved with the students, and very attentive with erasmus students and also one of the best teachers ever!
And with german don't worry, you can choose 4 different levels from beginner to B2, I think.
I hope this information is usefull for you!
And sorry about my english!
:D

Thank you Desiré Jaskółka! This is about the most useful information I have had. I am really grateful for the information, perfect! I hope that you will be at the university this September too so that I can meet you. Your English is great, it is obvious that you study in the Facultad de Filología. Professor Jaume Peris sounds like a good teacher. Ah...I'm even more excited now!. Desiré will you go abroad on Erasmus?

Greg- It will be my 3rd year in Valenica too. I haven't met someone from Poland before so if we meet it will be interesting to learn more about your culture. You already speak English! Ah....so many young Europeans can speak 2 languages. I was thinking of making a Facebook group but perhaps it is better for us all just to talk here?
