Nothing major to complain about!

The University of the Balearic Islands is a good University with friendly professors. Sometimes organisation problems occur, however nothing that cannot be dealt with. Everyone is very helpful and kind. It is however not easy to find a course here if you do not speak Catalan or at least Spanish. There are very few courses taught in English and most of the staff does not know any other language besides Spanish and Catalan. Nevertheless, there will always be someone on campus who will help you. The campus is nice and green, constantly modernising. The sport centre offers a good deal for university students.
