What differences will I find between my country and Padova?
If you’ve chosen to come to Padova you’ll have to get used to its good and bad points. It’s not a campus university and it’s got 60,000 students. You’re not in England, France, Spain or Germany so try to avoid saying “but in Germany it’s like this….”, “in France we have this….” etc. You’ll certainly find yourselves in a different environment. If you know how to get round any initial problems you’ll have a great stay. Remember that there’s an office here to help you.
