Université Paris X - Nanterre (UPX)

Université Paris X - Nanterre, 200, Avenue de la Republique, F-92001 Nanterre Cedex, France
3.91 / 5 based on 108 reviews.
Description:
The University Paris X in its 35 years of existence has become one of France's very finest universities. Situated at only five minutes from the center of "la Défense", it is a multidisciplinary university. Nanterre proposes prestigious study courses in the fields of the humanities, the social sciences, law, economics, business administration, applied mathematics, and sport.

Founded as an annex to the Sorbonne, Nanterre has, since the opening of the first building in October 1964, achieved a considerable place in the French and European universitary landscape. Nanterre is best-known for being the source of the 1968 movement, but has also made itself recognized in the scientific and literary domains.

Other sources of funding:

French Government gave us 36 euros per month
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits:
I live with my family so that's why I spent more money in housing or food, but less in telephone, because it's much cheaper ( I had an offer to call to Spain ); there're many offers for students. I spent almost the same in travelling because I like to travel a lot, so here and there I spent a lot. And the nightlife is more expensive in Paris than in Madrid.
Food, Nightlife, Overall, Housing: was more expensive than at home.
Travel: was the same price as at home.
Telephone: was less expensive than at home.
Personal comments:
Yes, of course ;) I'd recommend people to make a list with all money you spend, just to control it a bit, or they could have some surprises at the end of the month.

Gibert Jeune on Place St Michel sells and buys second hand books, don't automatically buy everything new. BNP Paribas are a good bank, they give you an overdraft, Carte Bleu and no bank charges.

French banks are much more difficult to deal with. Know what kind of account you are opening and ask lots of questions. That's what the French do.
