For French people, use Bmi Baby to go directly from Paris (CDG) to Nottingham, then it will take you only 1h30/2h to go on the campus by bus!

The whole Administrative Body in the University was very helpful in any situation. If I had some problems with an application for a module or a question about the assessments they were able to answer me and it absolutely appreciated this aspect.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
This solution is surely costly, but still less than living in a house. Moreover, Florence Boot Hall was very friendly and close to the University (5 minutes walk).

Personal comments
The Accomodation Services really makes all its possible to satisfy the students' requirements. They are absolutly available for any questions and/or problem that you could encounter. The Personnel in Florence Boot Hall was trumendously polite and helpful. Eventually, I do recommend to all students this type of accomodation on the campus.
