Renting a house in Paris is generally more expensive than in other provinces. There are university apartments and shared apartments for your reference. University apartments are generally near the university town and have cooperative relations with the university, but they need to apply in advance. If students apply late, they may have to wait until next semester to move in. The student apartment is fully covered with water, electricity and heating, covering an area of about 20 square meters. The price of this kind of housing is generally between 500 and 800 euros. Students remember to bring the double certificate of birth notarization issued by China. After arriving in France, they can go to CAF to apply for housing subsidies (caf: caisse d 'allocation families). Whether French nationals or other nationalities, as long as they meet certain conditions, legal residents in France can enjoy this benefit. CAF's subsidies mainly include family subsidies and housing subsidies, and the closest relationship with students studying in France is housing subsidies. Generally speaking, this kind of student apartment can apply for room compensation of 200-300 euros. Compared with university apartments, self-rented or shared apartments have a slightly larger area, but often the expenses such as water and electricity networks need to be borne by themselves. Compared with university apartments, students have a strong atmosphere and are more free to rent their own apartments.

Accommodation prices in other provinces are uneven, and the prices are different according to the different places where everyone studies. For example, the southern cities of France, such as Lyon, Nice and Marseille, have a slightly higher consumption level and price level because of their good geographical location and the nature of tourist cities. Ordinary apartments are generally around 400 euros, and housing subsidies are between 100-200 euros. In contrast, in Lille, Nantes, Rennes and other places, apartment prices are generally around 200-400 euros. After the housing subsidy, you can live comfortably at around 200 euros per month.

The subway in Paris is relatively perfect and the fare is reasonable. There are several kinds of subway tickets in Paris, including t+ tickets, daily tickets (Mobilis), weekly tickets (Le Passe Navigo Decourverte), monthly tickets and annual tickets. If you are far from the school, you can consider buying a monthly ticket, an annual ticket, or buying a bicycle to travel. There are few subways in other provinces, and international students mainly rely on public transportation.

eat
Because of the differences in eating habits, most international students who go to France cook by themselves. Most students have lunch in university canteens, and the French government subsidizes students very much. International students can apply for a meal card in the canteen and get a meal subsidy. Generally speaking, lunch is between 3 and 5 euros. Dinner and breakfast, I suggest you cook it yourself. Go to Carrefour every week to buy enough ingredients for a week, and you can eat well for about 50 euros. French people's eating habits are mainly baguette and pasta, and breakfast is mostly croissant with strawberry or chocolate sauce. The restaurant is about 40 to 60 euros per person, so it is more convenient for students to study cooking and life in France.
