thank  you for your reply! Just wondering what's the student accommodation like? how much it is for living costs,nightlfe etc?:)what to expect really!

Student accommodations are usually clean and tidy. It's depend of what you are looking for, but for example I pay 370€ (including heating and water) for 20m² the electricity is not included but it is around 20€ for 2 months. I spend around 200€ per month in supermarket and fast-food or restaurant. I like to go out and I can spend 200€ a month in bars and clubs. If you need to use the tramway or buses you can have month unllimited card for around 24€ (see at http://www.cts-strasbourg.eu/fr/Boutique-en-ligne/tarifs/Abonnements/). A tiket for 1hour is 1.60€, if you buy 10 tikets it could be less than 15€.
I don't know where are you from but Strasbourg is a relly nice city to go out, there are many bars and clubs, it is a nightlife city too, there are many student and foreign student too.

I think Strasbourg is not a really expensive city, exept if you want to drink alcool in clubs. Indeed I think bars and clubs could be more exensive than those in England but alcool in supermarket are cheaper. You can go to a german shop (around 15 min by bus from Strasbourg) to get alcool, food and cosmetics more cheaper than in France.

I am available if you hava any other question.

Hello, my name is Lorena, I'm a brazilian law student. I'm going to Strasbourg in september too. Actually, I've just received my acceptance letter from the Faculté de Droit de Strasbourg (yay). I'm proably going to stay in a university dorm. It would be very nice to know everybody who's going, before the arrival. Gabby, where are you from? what do you study?

Hello Gabby and Lorena :)

I am going to Strasbourg at the beginning of September too! :) I am going to study at EM Strasbourg for one semester and I still hesitate between "colocation" and university residence.

What about you? Are you sure that you want an accomodation at university residence?  

Lorena Da Écrit il y a 10 ans

I didnt think about "colocation", because the a idea of sharing a appartment with someone I don't know yet is very strange for me (that is what "colocation" means, right?). I dont know if I would be confortable with that. 

Anyways, I still dont know if there will be a vancancy for me at the university dorms. Why haven't you decided yet, Domenika? Also, where are you from? :)
