Housing was a big chuck of my money. Do not use traveler's checks. They cost money to convert at the bank.

France, Graduate
Marketing and Sales Management, 2021
OverallCet établissement dispose de plusieurs campus. Étudiant sur le campus des Quais, je peux affirmer que nous disposons d'un super cadre pour étudier. Les salles sont spacieuses, lumineuses et bien équipées. Le personnel est disponible, à l'écoute et toujours prêt à nous aider. Je suis très heureuse d'aller en cours le matin et la formation que je suis me plait énormément.

Housing
Type of housing: Living with flatmates
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: with flatmates
Why?
If you live with local flatmates in the same appartment, you learn the language / culture very easily. It helped me to better understand French culture.
