It was not legal for me to work Personal spending habits:
Housing is less expensive, even with the euro being about 2 Canadian dollars. Everything else was about the same price as here (or in the States), but in Euros. Food especially is very expensive. And of course, I did a lot of travelling in Europe. Food, Travel, Overall: was more expensive than at home. Nightlife, Telephone, Housing: was the same price as at home.
Personal comments:
The banking account was free. If you travel, book at least 2 weeks in advance - you can get amazing deals. Especially if you use discount airlines, such as easyjet, ryanair and aerlingus. Eurolines buses are pretty cheap too. And if you'll most use the SNCF (for train travel within France), definitely get the Carte 12-25. You'll save 50% on almost all journeys. You can ust the school's computers for the internet. You can also get a WiFi card from the international office for free (but with a deposit). But WiFi only works in 1 building. If you want internet in your room, it gets expensive (I think 25EUR/mth with limited up/downloads). For the phone: you don't really need one - you can call payphone-to-payphone and use calling cards. If you decide you need one, get a cellphone - they're actually cheaper than a landline. You can get a cheap one at Carrefour and pay as you go. Oh, and North American cell phones don't work in Europe, unless yours is tri-band. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

England is an expensive country, and housing costs are lower in France. Telephone costs were higher as I called the UK from time to time. I spoean more on nightlife because there are so many parties and evenings out that I found myself going to the cashpoint all the time. Nightlife, Telephone: was more expensive than at home. Food, Travel, Overall: was the same price as at home. Housing: was less expensive than at home.
Personal comments:
Société Générale (large French bank) charge you about 6 euros a month just to have an account with them, which wasn't communicated to those who opened an account. Apply for the CAF; although it takes a long time and it's a hassle, it is worth it. Buy a Carte 12-25 for train travel, as it also gives you money off car hire and Eurostar.

Nightlife in Dublin is unbelievably expensive in Dublin, I can assure you. An open bar night out organised with the school will cost you at most 20€, and you drink as much as you want; In Dublin, every pint costs 5€, and cover charges are not that low. Basically, in Dublin, we don't make allowances for students. Anytime there is cheap drink on offer, you can't get served at the bar, it's simply too crowded. Travel, Telephone: was more expensive than at home. Food, Overall: was the same price as at home. Nightlife, Housing: was less expensive than at home.
