“Good curriculum, lack of organisation”
Maria K
France, Undergraduate
Translation/Interpretation, 2021

Expenses
Main source of funding:
Family
Other sources of funding:
An ERASMUS grant
Work opportunities:
I worked during my study abroad experience
Personal spending habits
Spent more on travel as there were more places to visit, more opportunities
same on nightlife, although drinks are more expensive i didn't bother going to proper clubs too much so no entrance charges
food- more eating out as it's less expensive than at home, and also no cheap brands like at home.

Personal comments
CAF - housing benefit, difficult to deal with the actual administration, but worth it.
Beware Bank charges for going overdrawn, they happen at the endof the month not when the accidental overdraft occurred.
Don't let your landlord keep your deposit ( S Peltat )

Personal recommendation
The university was reasonable. The problem is that it went on a 2 month long strike at one point during my stay which affected my classes and my grades.
