• Answer:

  Hi, first thing you should know about cost is that one year university in France costs 300 to 500 euros max. For the whole year. Quite different from the US on that level. Living costs will depend on where you'd like to be: Paris ? South of France (Aix-Marseille)? There are other cities with great universities, but I'm a Law student so i don't really know how good they are in French. Paris universities are divided in faculties by number; for your subjects, Paris 3 is a top university and you will find the foreign students page there : http://www.univ-paris3.fr/59012904/0/fiche___pagelibre/&RH=1215783661267&RF=1207667042433 but you need to speak French to understand that ! living in Paris is quite expensive, a studio rent is about 400 to 600 euros a month depending on where you live. If you are in an exchange program, you may obtain a room in your country's building at the Cité Universitaire, a very nice park where all the countries have a building to host their students in Paris. But I know the place is hard to get. If you need information, just ask by email the universities, but they usually have a "Guide de l'étudiant étranger" (foreign student guide)
