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.

    Erasmus experiences Rouen

    It gathers 10 testimonials from international university students who completed their stay in Rouen, published between 2018 and 2021. The accounts highlight the youthful atmosphere and monumental beauty of the Norman capital, noting that the cost of living is significantly lower than in Paris, located just an hour and a quarter away by train. In the financial section, students detail rental prices for rooms and residences of between 220 and 400 euros per month, with overall budgets around 600-900 euros per month after receiving the monthly CAF housing subsidy (usually between 75 and 150 euros). There are persistent warnings about the cold and rainy climate typical of Normandy and the need to get by in French outside the university environment, although the texts barely delve into academic credit recognition processes or enrollment by faculties.

    Erasmus forum Rouen, France | Erasmusu.com

    An exchange space structured into around twenty discussion threads covering academic cohorts from 2021/2022 to the 2025/2026 academic year. The main concern of the participants, mostly Spanish and Italian students, focuses on finding flatmates to share an apartment in the city center and creating WhatsApp groups prior to arrival. Queries are also raised about specific degrees, such as Physiotherapy or Translation and Interpreting, and about the actual location of the campuses relative to the center. It is very useful for gauging pre-travel anxiety and getting in touch with other Spanish-speaking students, although many of the queries are cut short when moving to private instant messaging.
