“BTW - the comments from a while ago mention the "batiment A", which was where Erasmus students used to be placed. It's worth noting that this was demolished a few years ago and "batiment C" is where we tend to get put now (it's not too bad, but sometimes a bit noisy). Also the transport has improved due to a new-ish tram system being installed that links the campus with the city centre in 10 minutes. In general it's pretty good nowadays... and don't forget to try the tarte flambée!” Read Review

Speaking in French all the time might seem difficult at first, even if you're a French-language student like me, but it gets far easier as the year progresses!

Personal comments:
With regards to written language I improved quite alot due to course work however the lack of social interaction with the French students and the locals meant that my spoken language did no become fluent like I had expected it would.
