Housing in France
CROUS and institution-linked residences have limited capacity, and many students use private or shared rentals. Apply early, verify the provider and contract, and confirm deposits, guarantor requirements, utilities and travel time before payment.
Check the full cost
Confirm deposits, utilities, contract length, furnishings, transport and cancellation terms, not only the advertised monthly amount.
Protect yourself
Verify the landlord or provider, use a written contract and avoid untraceable payments or offers that cannot be inspected.
