I had to do English Literature as it was part of my course in Edinburgh. It was ok although a slower pace than what we'd been doing in the UK. Some of the teaching was based on class quizzes which seemed a little juvenile. We also did translation classes which were good.

I think it can be quite hard for the local students to mix with you. Although one problem with the nature of what I was studying was that the FRench students studying English all wanted to practise their English so it was hard to practise my French. I did however make lots of French friends but outside of the University and I still visitthem.
Stay away from M. Brunet. M. Boucris is amazing. The introductary courses are very large and impersonal but if you are brave enough to go further, you will find great teachers and smaller classes.

It's not fair to rate assessment -- it differs widely depending on the teacher. The grading was very challenging, sometimes arbitrary, but the American equivilence with the U of M program is very generous. It's no walk in the park, but isn't that what higher education is supposed to be?
Take any courses that you will enjoy, and maybe know in advance which ones might count at your home institution.

Well, academic courses just have to be taken, I guess... after all, its study abroad and not holidays... I studies very little, only the few days leading up to an exam, and it was fine. Foreign students just have to mark "etudiant etranger" on their exams and the professors usually will grade them a little less tough.

There is usually a set program that you have to follow for language courses, so there isn't a large variety of courses.

You really have to make an effort to meet french people. Joins clubs and go out a lot and try and meet a few good friends, because they're the ones that will help you learn the language.
