I wish I had known...
That I should have followed 5 in stead of 4 courses. That it was difficult to find housing by yourself - but worth it!

Personal comments
People speak a lot of French but can easily help you in English at the school, but one of the reasons for choosing France was to improve my French language skills, which I did! Outside school people were in general nice and understanding if I missed a word, but i did not have real troubles!

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I like to have my independence and being able to study when I want to and have fun when I want to. Living at a residence can be disrupting.

Personal comments
You can choose to live in the recidences around campus, but they are far from the center of Lyon, which is another reason for not chosing this option. However finding housing yourself was a bit difficult, but worth it!
