Travel as much as you can - there are great deals to Morocco and Tunisia, and France is beautiful too! Try to arrange accommodation before you arrive (atleast stay with someone who can help you). Read Review

I lived at the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris - it's a "foyer" in the South of Paris - I loved itr a lot because I was the first one to move into my newly renovated room and got to know many friendly people.

The accessibility of student needs
Second-hand text books
KEY:
Very easy.
Minimal effort.
Accessible but required effort.
Almost impossible.
Second-hand household items
Computers / Internet
Administrative
Money from home
Main source of funding:
Family

Personal savings
An ERASMUS grant
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits:
Because the level of costs is much higher than at home - especially housing & most of the food are incredible expensive in Paris. You'll need at least 1300-1500 Euros to live there a nice and pleasant life!
Food, Travel, Nightlife, Overall, Telephone, Housing: was more expensive than at home.
Personal comments:

Important to choosing this university...
Academic reasons
KEY:
Very Important.
Important.
Not really important.
Unimportant.
Culture
Costs
Activities
Campus life
Party / people
Weather / Location
I wish I had known...
That you have to wait to get to know people from Paris - they don't welcome you with open arms.
In my opinion:
Everybody loved it, you will too!



During my experience abroad, I ...
Became familiar with another culture
KEY:
Happened all the time.
Happened quite a lot.
Happened a bit.
Didn't happen.
Traveled
Improved language skills
Met people from other countries
Became more independent
Partied a lot
Experienced a change in life
Advanced my studies/career
Personal recommendation:
The level even rose - they changed it into a "Grande École" - be careful with courses in French if you aren't familiar with the language - they are even hard for the French students - for example "Finance" or "Comptabilité" - and don't expect good grades - the average grade is 12 which is a bit more than pass - 18-20 don't exist and only the best of class will receive 15/16!



FINAL COMMENTS

Plan your stay carefully, take your time to get to know the people and the culture and try to explore France on yourself - its culture.....and don't expect to push your studies quickly - that won't be possible if ypu aren't a native or nearly native!
