4.1

Maastricht University's PBL is extremely efficient and is highly recommended.

Tips: Before joining this college, students should be prepared for a cultural shift. This includes walking or biking a lot, a more work-life balance oriented culture, simpler food, and a high party/drinking culture. Despite these differences, I am very satisfied with the quality of education at my university, and I find my course very interesting and well taught.

Likes (Safety): The country, especially the city of Maastricht is really safe. Watch out for bike thefts though. There are often police patrols late at night, as well as the prison/rehabilitation system is very good in this country and the crime rate is generally very low. I have had many instances of returning from events or parties quite late at night alone or with few friends and we are able to walk/bike without a care of getting in any trouble. We observed the same confidence in safety amongst practically everyone else.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Not many Indian restaurants are there in my locality but mainly Turkish/ Surinamese or standard 'European' restaurants. I prefer cooking myself as I can eat healthy and save on cost. It is fairly easy to get a hang of cooking, especially if you are not picky about what you eat and assimilate with the respective eating habits of the place you live in. Doing so also helps save money as you don't have to get ingredients or cooking accessories considered foreign or exotic in such places.
