Academic
Course recommendations
1st year courses are quite boring - If you look for challenge, take "Marketing International" (3rd year) and all 4th year courses. Very good: "Economie Internationale"

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
in contrast to living in a student's residence, living in an apertment gives you the possibility to invite friends round (also for big parties) and accomodate visiting friends from back home

Personal comments
When I arrived I could speak the language but doing lots of mistakes and using a very stronge mother-tongue landuage. After a month I noticed I was able to attemp lessons at school without any effort and having conversations understanding and being understood. Not only I obtained useful knowledge to my academic skills but also did I learn french.
