Overall
SciencesPo offers an excellent education for the exchange students. It offers many different language courses, and a great variety of courses in different fields, in French or in English. Even though some of their professeurs can lack experience and not apt to teach at such an institution, most of the professeurs are very helpful and qualified. Also the institution is very accommodating to exchange students and international students.

Housing
Type of housing: Students dorm
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Living in a students dorm makes you live in a kind of bubble. Sharing an apartment not only makes you feel more at home as it enables you to contact more with the local people.
