Course recommendations
The Erasmus courses on offer are good, but are at a rather basic level. I therefore recommend to check out the courses for "normal" French students which are not organised to meet the needs of international students. They might be abit more difficult at the beginning, but your French will improve wuickly and they are very interesting, i.e. Relations Internationales, Cinema

Personal comments
It proved rather difficult to meet and become involved with local students, as British and French Student life is rather different. Although efforts were made by the ERASMUS office, maybe these could somehow be improved.

Personal comments
It has been a few years, so I can't remeber very much. What I do recommend though is to avoid the two English Pubs in town, that is if you want to speak French, don't go there!!!

Go skiing, meet the locals and try to take a trip down to the coast. Great camping sites.
Also try to make the most of the courses on offer, some of them are really interesting.
