At the beginning it was terrible, ´couse I wasn´t able to speak French at all. But as I was forced to speak French everyday, my French got better soon.

“Secrétaire raccroche au nez, profs, référents, PERSONNE NE REPOND!!”

, 2024

Overall

De grandes attentes..
Finalement début cahotique : secrétaire raccroche au nez, même en présentiel les bureaux sont fermes, impossible d avoir les informations..et quand on les a, elles ne sont pas claires...
En distantiel, impossible d' avoir un contact avec le professeur principal qui ne répond pas aux mails, idem pour le secrétariat...
Le planning annoncé qu on a des profs..et finalement on est évalué par d autres profs ..
C est anxiogène.. les élèves et parents sont livrés à eux même..

Pros

Aucune idée a ce jour

Cons

L accueil l écoute l accompagnement, leur site internet, le lieu d accueil..

Personal comments

there weren´t the chance of living in a campus. Just the possibility of living in a little house with Belgium people: and they were so unkind.

Marie-Haps international office did provide me with a list of houses (kots!) to look at, in the end I did choose one of them - but I checked out others from the newspapers too.
