Erasmusu is a social network focused on Erasmus and international exchange students. The website is heavily influenced by facebook, with a very similar design and the same functions.
But I have to say they found a good niche and implemented some nice extra features such as:

• getting information about any city or university: the weather, photos, forum, people in the city, maps, reviews and other user experiences, Our intention is to provide a useful platform full of content to the students so they can:
• connecting with international exchange students that were\are\will be your exchange-mates.
• view rankings of the best cities and universities, ordered by party, people, art, health, prices and more.

If you have been\ are \ will be an exchange student, or would simply like to connect with international students coming in your city, I highly recommend to use their service.

The service is in private beta but we have got 10 invites to share with you, the first ten people to comment will get them!
