Université Toulouse 1 Sciences Sociales (UT1)

It was not very proper but it was very good located. They were changing the buildings and putting acces to internet. But at my time there wasnt acces to internet nor access to akitcher nor entretainment activities.

University Toulouse 1 is a high ranked university which offers a fairly number of opportunities at the same time.Since it is located in the south of France you have the chnace to travel some other countries such as Spain,Italy,Portugal and so forth.

Travel a lot, but also enjoy the city where you are living. Also do turistic activities because at the end you are. Open a bank account that does not charge your when you close it.

In a way, learning French in France is easy - you have no other choice! That said, don't expect to be fluent in one semester, because that's just not going to happen unless you had a really good basis before you left. In my case, it took 3 months (including a 4-week intensive French course) before I understood everything that was being said, and almost a year before I felt truly comfortable talking. And even now, after a total of 4 years in France, I still retain that charming Norwegian accent ;-) So don't expect miracles, either.
