I had a great time in Poitiers. I'm sure you will too. If you're planning on traveling make sure you sign up on time for the trips organized by the university. Participate in sports! For only 16 euros you're allowed to do as many sporting activities as you want including tennis, football, basketball,...even golf! Rent a room in the city centre and apply for CAF, a rent subsidy which pays you back almost half of the rent. Good luck!

an interesting school in a boring city
Oussama B
France,
Management Science, 2025
Overall
When i first moved to Poitiers from a big city such as Tours, i was shocked of how small, boring and a terrible the city is. little did i know the school was actually really interesting. I'm not in the university of Poitiers as mentioned, i just selected it since the school where i study isn't on the list, i actually study in IAE (Enterprises Management Institution). it's a big beautiful school where everything is presented for the comfort and the well being of the students. one thing that actually attracted my attention about the school is the fact that there are some courses here that are not presented elsewhere in the whole country or it's only presented in the elite schools of Paris. all in all, don't let the bad boring city fool you because the school is really worth the shot.

Pros
having courses that don't exist elsewhere or only in elite parisian schools

Une Université d'une ville moyenne mais talentueuse
Oscar G
France, Graduate
Marketing and Sales Management, 2021
Overall
Université qui propose un très large catalogue de formations et de cours !! Des professeurs très compétent et surtout une atmosphère excellente au sein de tous le campus ! Le campus est grand, beau, agréable, et c'est un plaisir d'aller dans les amphitheaters de l'université. Certaines faculté se situent en centre-ville, très bon point, pour le reste tout est sur le campus mais il y'a multitudes de selfs, nourritures différentes et cafeterias.
Etant donné que l'université ne se situe pas dans une très grande ville de France, elle ne bénéficie malheureusement pas de la réputation des grandes écoles, pour autant, niveau qualitatif, les cours concurrencent largement ceux des grandes écoles et l'université bénéficie d'une très bonne réputation nationale pour une ville moyenne de 100 000 habitants

Get involved in an activity out of university like a sport or a theatre group. It expands your language and your knowledge of the people if you spend some time away from the students.

It's a good university but they are a bit slow with providing information about e.g. holidays, exams.

The best way to travel to Poitiers is by train. And you can travel in the province as well. The only way and the fastest way to travel in France is by TGV unless you have a car. It's better to go the first semester (September till January) because in that period, there are more exchange students. It's easier to make contact with exchange student than with French students. Unless you speak fluent French than it's easy to make contact with French students. My advice is: don't expect too much

Bien que mon parcours universitaire ait été parsemé de défis et d'ajustements, il a été une expérience incroyablement enrichissante.
