Where do these figures come from?

This is an estimate: it starts from Eurostat price indices (2024) for rent, food, transport and leisure in France, adjusted for city size and checked against Numbeo (2026-09) and the European Commission's Erasmus student survey. Think of a shared flat and cooking at home. It is not a market price and does not include flights or your home university fees.

    Experiencias Erasmus en Marsella

    Real student experiences reflect that Marseille is a city of contrasts. Some openly warn about the initial feeling of insecurity and recommend knowing well which neighborhoods to move around at night (such as the area around the Old Port or Cours d'Estienne d'Orves), but everyone agrees that the atmosphere is unbeatable. They especially highlight the climate, multiculturalism, and proximity to the famous Calanques for excursions. Regarding prices, they estimate about 600-800 euros per month if you do not overindulge.

    Foro Erasmus Marsella

    A fairly active forum where the main goal is to find other Spaniards before arriving. There are recurring threads from students of specific degrees (such as Physiotherapy) looking to do internships in local hospitals. There are also plenty of classic doubts about the best public student residences versus looking for a shared flat, as well as questions about the transport pass and the safest areas to look for accommodation.
