Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
The house is the best choice for Oxford because it enables you to live with your friends and also because it will save your money. Living in Oxford is very EXPENSIVE and it is very difficult to find a good rental agency.

Anyway, do not hope that you will live in a big and comfortable house. The "poor" standards of living in Oxford are the same for all in Oxford even for the wealthiest people !

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I am independant, When I go home after school, I can do what I want to e.g. reading in a quiet environment, studying, receiving friends... It helped me become more mature, fir I had to do many things by myself (finding the house, paying bills...). I am pretty glad about this experience.

Personal spending habits
Living in Oxford is far more expensive than in France. It is as simple as that ! But you can earn a lot of money if you get a job in banking in London. I do not think Oxford is expensive if you consider your studies as an investment.

Final comments
Oxford is a great town to be in for some time during your studies. Near to London yet in a beautiful provincial location. The school gives a lot of advice and is very helpful. A great experience is attending all kinds of presentations of companies seeking graduates and offering graduate programme opportunities.

Personal comments
French people are usually proficient in written English, but have difficulties understanding native speakers. I am able to understand fully dialogues in English, what I was not able to do before that stay in U.K. Thanks to my studies I could improve my proficiency in academic and everyday language.
