Personal comments
I really apreciated the fact that the university provided to find location for entering students, but I would apreciated more sincerity on informing about the place. I was located in Roubaix, a suburb of Lille, well known for its level of violence. If I would have a car, eerything would have been much easyer.. and safer!!! During the second semester I moved to an apartment in the center of Lille.. More expensive, but much better!!!
