Great experiences, impressions and adventures
“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you once again for this past semester. It was an incredibly great time for me here in Aalborg with lots of great experiences, impressions and adventures and I am very sad to be travelling home again next Friday. I will always have fond memories of you, the AAU and Aalborg in general and it will probably not be my last time here. With this in mind, I wish you all the best and would be delighted to see you again sometime in the future.
Thank you very much and see you again soon!”

Help with the practicalities
"We received all necessary information well in advance. Also the "Pre-Arrival-Webinar" two weeks before the semester start was a great opportunity to have a good overview as well as to ask questions. I think there was nothing missing in information before the arrival. Thanks!

One of the best times in my life so far
"All in all, it was just a great stay here in Aalborg and at AAU. I gained so many new experiences, met many new people (international as well as danish) and just enjoyed my whole stay. I can say it was one of the best times in my life so far and I will never forget my time here. If I could go for that semester abroad again, I would definitely do it. It was so much fun, so
interesting, amazing and instructive to be here. Thank you all for making this happen and thank you for all the offered help. I will miss it for sure. Many thanks and see you soon!"

Did you feel SOCIALLY included as a student at AAU?
"Yes, definitely. Whenever you have any question (to fellow students or the professor) there are always very helpful. Also the group work around the project and PBL (e.g. exercises and assignments with other groups) helped to connect to the other danish students. I felt myself socially included and very comfortable all the time. This applies not only for me as a student at
AAU, but also for the whole society in Aalborg or Denmark in general".

One of the best experiences of my life to be honest. Thanks for having me!
"Being a student at AAU and being a part of the PBL method really helped me evolve as a student and I’m super grateful for the opportunity. There were some challenges, but those moments taught me a lot about myself and I’m thankful to have learned from them. Aalborg in general is a really pleasant city, with so much to see and do and I’m really going to miss it. Whenever I would come back from traveling, it always felt like home. I really encourage anybody with the opportunity to attend AAU and see where the journey takes you!"

Heartfelt Gratitude - Assistance and support
"I hope this email finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for all the assistance and support that I have received from your team during my time as an international student at Aalborg Universitet.
From the moment I arrived in a Denmark, your team was there to provide guidance, answer my questions, and make the transition as smooth as possible.
Your dedication to creating a safe, comfortable, and inclusive environment for international students like me is truly commendable. I felt at home in the accommodation provided, which also played an important role in helping me focus on my studies and adapt to my new surroundings.
As I prepare to complete my studies , I want to extend my heartfelt thanks once again. Your unwavering support has left a positive and lasting impact on my journey as an international student. I will always remember the kindness and professionalism that your team exhibited.
Thank you once again for being an integral part of my academic journey. I wish you all continued success in providing exceptional support to future international students"

PBL - high learning effect
"Although having difficulties, I really liked the PBL, since I think that the learning effect is much higher than just learning things for a written exam and possibly forgetting about the things learned after the exam"
