I wish I had known...
I wish I would have known that the University of Nantes had no programme whatsoever aimed at making foreign students feel at home. You're totally on your own there.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
The campus residences are not very comfortable and mine was a bit far from the city centre. I think I would have rather rented a nice apartment close to the centre.
