Take out large amouts from ATMs as they charge, not much but it's more cost effective if you get large amounts.

Academic
Course recommendations
Take some french courses in advance! And take some foreign languages like german, spanish, arbab, chinize .. to get into contact with the french students and to learn their language and culture better.

Personal comments
There are two possibilities in programmes: EURO BA course which is in English or the french version. It is almost impossible to change programmes during the year. Make sure you know what you want to do in advance. I took the english course, this is only with foreign students, the french course was mixed with the french students. I am used from the UBS in Holland that also the english programme is being taken by nationals it would have been a more learnful experience if there would have been some french students in our programme....

Overall
I wish I had known...
That I would be billed for having caused a bit of a mess in my corridor at a party! Clean up before they have time to inspect the next day! Also, if I'd known the students have so many barbeques I would have brushed up my cooking skills!

Personal recommendation
Get involved! Don't live on your own. Chose a flat share. Don't hang around with people from your university - integrate. Sup Europe is great fun!

Don't worry about things before you go. Caen is a lovely wee town and the students are great! Portsmouth is only a ferry ride away and is cheap if you're a foot passenger so it's easy to get to the UK if you fancy a weekend at home. You'll have a great time in Caen!

choose to follow the French Programme if you like to learn something! There is also an english programme, but that's not much of a challenge. Besides you won't learn the French language at all, doing the English programme

It is a great opportunity to study at Sup Europe but you really have to make the most of it, it won't be handed over on a silver platter.
