What others say

Stories and questions from students who were there.

  • Experiencia Erasmus en Montpellier, Francia por Kimolo

    The author chose Montpellier as their second option because they wanted to spend some time in the south of France and had already studied French. They mention receiving a grant of around 1,700 euros in October, but that this amount did not even cover half of the rent, which in their case was 590 euros per month; they also mention acquaintances who paid 700 euros. They describe a very student-friendly city, with language courses at the university, an approximate weekly expenditure of 150-200 euros, and expensive restaurants and nightclubs. As specific recommendations, they suggest looking for bars with happy hour, Broc Café, and trips to Sète, as well as the Arc de Triomphe and the Château de Flaugergues.

  • Foro Erasmus de Montpellier

    The page is the index of the Montpellier forum on Erasmusu, but in the query performed it did not show specific threads: a commercial notice to search for accommodation predominated. Therefore, it serves as an entry point for student questions, not as evidence of detailed answers or experiences. The notice itself refers to the accommodation section of Erasmusu, which confirms that housing is a prominent need, although this page does not provide verifiable prices or availability.
