Final comments

France is a beautiful country, you really have to see it. There are good facilities for students to travel, e.g. discounts, hostel information etc. And you have to realise that you are lucky you can do an exchange, you have to profit of it, you learn a lot of a country and yourself and you will never forget it, and sometimes you make friends for life.

Family<br> Personal savings

Work opportunities:

I didn't explore any work options

Personal spending habits

For cheap food,` try Lidl on rue Siffert. cheap food and there's a laundry mat just next door. Nightlife is more expensive because I went out more! All the time! Travel was more for obvious reasons, and telephone was less because I bought a cell phone with rechargeable cards. the best way to go.

Overall, Nightlife, Travel:

was more expensive than at home.

Food, Housing, Telephone:

was less expensive than at home.

Money from home

Personal comments

ATM/Debit cards from home work just fine in France. You could bank right from home but you are required to open a bank account in France. Open a bank account at the Banque Populaire right downtown on rue des Granges--and go to Patrick. He's very helpful if you are polite and nice and try to speak good French.

Housing

Type of housing: On campus

Arranged by: Host university

If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House

Why?

I would choose to live in an apartment with other French students. The dorms were about a 25 minute bus ride from campus and downtown. The bathroom facilities were co-ed (pretty normal), but dirty and really not very safe. The toilets had no seats and everyone had to take his/her own toilet paper to the bathroom everytime. Finally, living with other French students would be nice because in the dorms all fo the Americans, Italians, etc all grouped together and spoke their native languages. Not conducive to learning French. The price was right 800ff/month=$110/month, but you paid for what you got.
