EM Strasbourg Business School

It is very expense to fly into Strasbourg airport. Ryanair fly to Baden Baden which is quite close. Paris is four hours away by train. Take the boat tour on your first day to see the whole city.

I am aware of the fact that staying with other int. students is a lot easier than mingle with the FRench. Nevertheless it is absolutely indispensable to get some contacts with the local (students), othwerwise you stay is only a long language holiday... If you are really interested in the French culture, language, behaviour and nation, don't stay outside... You should know that right at the beginning of the year there are 150 new young students how are looking for friends, try to meet them for example at the WE-d'Intégration. The students fro thrid year just came back from their studies abroad (compulsory at IECS) and they know how hard it is to get to know FRench students - you can meet them, too! The students from 2nd year might be interested in your hime university, because maybe they want to go there next year and would like to have a friend alreayd - they are mostly open to meet you , too!!! A perfect occasion for having fun WITH THE FRENCH are the social events (despite soirées..) and travels like "Semaine au Ski" or "Amsterdam". in my opinion you should go there! All the best! Niki

Strasbourg is in a great location for visiting other European cities - make the most of the weekends!

Strasbourg is a quite expensive city. I didn't choose Paris because I thought it was too expensive...but then I realised Strasbourg was the second most-expensive! Look for a flat and share it with another students. I don't recommend University residences.
