Living on Campus is probably easy but not my favorite option. Find roommates and live off campus, you will experience more the American way of life!

Campus is so beautiful, life is fun, people are nice and helpful....don't be afraid, there is a lot of orientation meeting before starting courses, and the International Student center will help you in any case....They organize parties to meet international students like you....

Expenses
Main source of funding:
Family
Other sources of funding:
Personal savings
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits
Accomodation is expensive, yes but why??? French exchange rate versus dollar was very high....but it's not excessive....then when you are abroad, far from your home, you are obliged to visit more, to go out more to meet people, to spend money for spend money because sometimes you're sad but most of the time you're out with friends, travelling, visiting, clubbing, drinking...and thats expensive...but you not not regret!!!!!
