Overall
I wish I had known...
concerning all administrational matters: take somebody with you who speaks french well, foreign languages aren't necessarily spoken, there's loads of forms and bureaucracy is often pretty complicated.

In my opinion:
Most people loved it.
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
if you want to get something done as far as your studies are concerned, this is a good place to go. if you're highly motivated try to pass the CSCT, especially if you might want to work in france later on.
if you're looking for a place to party you might be better off somewhere else.

Personal comments
the rooms are very small, but as i am not in my room very often (quite a lot to see here), i don't really mind. all in all quite good although living together with the other people is sometimes quite annoying (in terms of cleanliness of toilets and showers).

“My Opinion regarding the University de bretagne Occidentale”
Youssef E
France, Undergraduate
Banking, 2021
Overall
First of all, I would like to make it clear that i'm not a direct student in UBO, I'm a student at euria which is an attached finance school to the ubo.
I found the experience very pleasant, the staff and the teachers are overall amazing, the classes and subjects are very good and objectif with quality presentations.
The student life is good too, a lot of activities to do inside campus and ossociations to be involved with, I was myself was with an association that helps student with difficulties at school providing them help and guidance through scientific subjects ( Maths , Physics)
It's a great university over all, the city is good too

I would choose the same because I share the same space with many interesting people, so I get to know them and have many friends. It's like a big house and a very sociable environment.

if you want to travel around in france take the train and the "carte 12-25". sometimes air france has highly competitive student offers, check it out!
if you want to buy sports gear decathlon is not a bad choice.

“A multidisciplinary degree”
Gaedig C
France, Undergraduate
Language, 2022
Overall
I decided to enroll in this bachelor because it provided opportunities to improve my language skills applied to a professional context. Indeed, the courses offered are very diverse, alongside language courses in our target languages ( in my case English, Chinese and German), we can also pick a wide range of topics from economics or law to translation, all designed to facilitate inclusion in the job market afterward. It is mandatory to do an internship abroad during the last semester of this bachelor which allows us to gain real professional experience and insight.
