Local language and language of instruction are the same. French language is pretty easy to read, but sometimes hard to understand, speccially slang!

Final comments
The experinnce I'm living is very important to me: I' m experiencing a lot about contacts with other people, about introducing myself in a totally new contest. This is not always easy to do and succeed, but I'm trying hard..International experiences are really TOTAL experiences: you learn about language, behaviour, attitude, culture, general culture, self esteem.

There are 60 students associations about sports,culture and events organisations; students meet in the Restaurant to have meals, then we all go to the Caf until late at night. every week there's a huge party in the campus:3000 students from inside and outside the campus dancing togheter. Twice a week there are MBA students parties!

I'm in a single room in a building where other 60 students live, so I can study when I have to, I can easly meet people when I want to;plus,my building is just in front of the "studies building", so everything is very confortable!
