As an Erasmus student was the worst university I have been and I had a really bad experience (in the field of social communication). I don't understand how is it possible that they accept any student without asking for a certificate of Language (Italian) and not providing any English courses (they provide a small online Italian course, but that is not enough to realize exams and understand completely the classes), so all classes are in Italian and all content available is in Italian. The Italian students are difficult to interact with, since most of them don't know how to speak in English. We had classes that would last 6 hours in a row due to the difficult logistics of so many students (I believe). In some classes I had to sit on the floor and use my computer on the floor because there was no space to sit since we were way to many students for the amount of space. Other times we had to do online classes as well because os problems of space in the classrooms. One time a piece of the roof fell in the middle of the class. I also had some troubles with a project group and I felt professors were really unavailable to provide any help for it.
I had a really bad experience, and I believe the university should ask for a Certificate of Language or provide English courses, because it is impossible to actually learn something as an Erasmus student. Although they are the biggest university of Europe doesn't mean they have any quality, size does not measure the goodness of it.
