Known in French as «colocation», this type of accommodation consists of sharing an apartment (or a house) with other people and thus split the rent and charges. Look for ads on specialized websites.

Good experience
Warda khan rated 5 out of 5 stars

It is a very good university for students wanting to study in several languages with other fellows coming from all over the world. The diversity and quality of the education is very impressive.

UPEC (Université Paris Est Créteil) give a really heart warming feeling. I started 1 year ago but I feel the support by the University and even more in a Covid period.

Good overall
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars

Professors are great and always available for questions, students really help each other, and there is diversity on campus but some programs lack people of color. As for the administration, it's pretty bad.
