Course recommendations
For practically every course there's lecture AND lessons in work groups. During the work group lessons we did a lot of experiences and discussions, you learn IN LIVE various phenomena in Psychological fields. I have learned EVERYTHING I know until now in Psychology in this university.

Personal comments
It is known that the French universities do not give out the degrees very easily. The courses are absolutely interesting and fantastic, but you need a lot of luck to succeed in exams because your hard work doesn't pay out every time.

Personal comments
I honestly don't know anything about the housing connected to the university.
but if you ask me about my personal experiences with the realestate agency, I've been to the court and had lawyers help me out. If anybody reading this needs advice on which realestate agency to seek and not to seek, please mail me.

If you have a chance, try becoming an 'abonnee' of the Opera National de Paris. I've been to the Paris opera houses more than 300 times in 8 years. It's a great place for opera/ballet fans!
