Description:
L'Université Panthéon-Assas est fort engagée dans le réseau des Universités européennes unies dans le cadre du programme Socrates. Elle participe à plus de quarante accords qui, pour des périodes d'un ou deux semestres, permettent aux étudiants des universités concernées d'accomplir une fraction de leur cursus en France avec validation, en vue de l'obtention de leurs diplômes nationaux, des résultats obtenus. Les étudiants de l'Université Panthéon-Assas trouvent eux-mêmes dans ces accords le moyen d'accomplir une partie de leur cursus dans une autre université.

“Paris is an expensive place, but definitely worth having lived. Also great to pick up the local tongue, even if you stay for a short while. By the way, don't miss out on the Louvre jeunes card, enabling you to visit the museum as much as you wish for EUR 30 a year.” Read Review

EXPENSES    
by Samantha, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom
Law, Erasmus
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:
An ERASMUS grant
Other sources of funding:
Personal savings
Government assistance
A private grant
Work opportunities:
I worked during my study abroad experience
Personal spending habits:
Needing a metro pass because I was in a big city, but in general Paris was much cheaper than Oxford. Spent more on telephoning because I had to call back to the UK, but then now I probably spend as much on calls to Europe!
Travel, Telephone: was more expensive than at home.
Food, Nightlife, Overall, Housing: was less expensive than at home.
Personal comments:
French mobile phones (pay as your go calls) cost a bomb. Get an SFR abonnement for 6 months BUT DON'T FORGET TO CANCEL IT AT LEAST ONE MONTH BEFORE LEAVING. The process is complicated. You have to pay to see the Doctor up front. Can be very expensive. EU students should have an E128 form, you can then claim back 3/4 of costs. Keep the barcodes on any medication prescribed and all documents given by doctors and pharmacists for this purpose.

FINAL COMMENTS

Paris is an expensive place, but definitely worth having lived. Also great to pick up the local tongue, even if you stay for a short while. By the way, don't miss out on the Louvre jeunes card, enabling you to visit the museum as much as you wish for EUR 30 a year.
