Personal spending habits:
Norway is very expensive, so living in France was a breeze in comparison. Also, the French have a lot of students discounts (e.g. airlines, SNCF, cinema, hairdresser's,...) which makes it pretty affordable to study there.
Telephone: was the same price as at home.
Food, Travel, Nightlife, Overall, Housing: was less expensive than at home.
Personal comments:
People hang up fliers around university looking for flatmates or selling scooters, books, laptops,... Have a look around, you never know where you might find a bargain! Also, try the CRIJ (Centre régional d'information de jeunesse) where you'll find all sorts of useful information.
