Multicultural and vibrant campus.
Tips: I'm somewhat satisfied with this school, but it's not the best choice for international students. I would prefer some of the other top universities in France. I transitioned from Latvia (Riga) to France for this Erasmus double degree, so it's a great opportunity for me to move from Eastern Europe to Western Europe.
Likes (Safety): Campuses are equipped with 24/7 emergency helplines, so students can reach out immediately if they feel unsafe. I've found access to residential and academic buildings to be good. I especially enjoy exploring the local cafes, libraries and the park atmosphere.
Dislikes (Part time work): Classes are full day so it can be challenging at times. However it's manageable, and we can work part time jobs on weekends. You can find these jobs in restaurants, shops, student cafeterias and on campus. They typically pay a minimum wage of 9-15 euros per hour, which is sufficient for covering expenses.
