What is it like being an exchange student at Aalto University?

<p>As per the experience of one of the student at Aalto University, you expect the following.</p><p>a)Student life includes lot&rsquo;s of drinking, it&rsquo;s not mandatory, but you&rsquo;ll be out of it if you don&rsquo;t drink.<br>b) Finnish people drink loads of coffee, drinking coffee is the biggest social thing we have.<br>c) Get a 30-day student bus ticket. It&rsquo;s quite cheap and you can use the metro, trams, local trains, local ferries and busses with it.<br>d) We Finns are not chatty people, but if you need help with something, just ask for help. We&rsquo;ll be happy to help.<br>e) Going back to a). You probably come from a place where alcohol is cheaper than here, so bring as much alcohol with you as you can. Finnish alcohol prices can be found in alko.fi.<br>f) Aalto University is not in Helsinki, it&rsquo;s in Espoo. So try to get an apartment close.</p>
