Why did you choose to go to Grenoble, France?

The studies I wanted was at UJF and so I went there but I never regret for having gone for mountains surrounding that very lovely flat city, its nature and lovely ambient.

How long is the scholarship? How much money do you receive to help you with living costs?

I was there for 5 months and I had a different scholarship which paid me 760 euros per month

What is the student lifestyle like in Grenoble?

It s quite good. There is not too many options to go out to bars or discos but students usually do very good parties at homes and it s very joyful.

Would you recommend the city and the University of Grenoble to other students?

For sure, I recommend it to anyone.

What is the food like?

Wine, Cheese and bread is the main components of everything there and they re all very delicious. Except for that, Grenoble cuisine is very good.

No. My program organized it for me. I was staying at CNOUS residence.

How much does it cost to live in Grenoble?

It depends on the lifestyle of person but residence fee is around 300 euros per month and 300 euros approximately, will be ok for food.

Is the language easy to get to grips with? Are there language courses available at the University?

there are language courses but not very useful. They are at very crowded groups and very few hours. French is very difficult to learn (at least for me) but is a very lovely language.

What's the easiest or most economical way to travel to Grenoble from your city?

Flight to Lyon and then taking a bus

Where would you recommend to go on a night out in Grenoble?

There are many nice bars to have drinks for nights. To dance, I used to go George V, which is a good club.

And for eating? Can you recommend some good restaurants in Grenoble?

at Plac de tribunal, there is a very nice traditional restaurant whose name is not clear in my mind.

What good cultural sites are there to visit?

La bastille is great. I went there hundreds of times. There are always concerts at the hall called L'amperage. Also, there are cool museums and one can easily access to mountains.

Is there any other advice that you could give to students going to Grenoble in the future?

I was so hapy for beeing there. After there, continued my studies in Barcelona but everyday I miss grenoble eventhough I am in barcelona.
