They also have a center to get free things from books and<br>clothes to pots and pans other students have left behind. The University is right beside a hospital but also has a clinic on campus for students. There is an international students center to help with exchange needs and they offer French support classes once-twice a week if you are not taking full CIREFF (learning French courses). There is CMI, a local center for international students and they offer help\/services to students from housing to health cards and even trips planed. Also ERASMUS plans fun trips to various places in France. There are clubs for those learning French\/exchange students such as radio, music, theater and at the end of each semester puts on a talent show. If you are looking to make friends this is an excellent way!&#8221;<em> &#8211; Winter 2023, Bachelor of Global and International Studies<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n        <\/dd>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n    <div class=\"grid pt-4 pb-3 border-b accordion border-cu-black-100 md:pt-6 md:pb-5 first:border-t\">\n        <dt class=\"font-semibold not-prose\">\n            <button class=\"flex items-center justify-between w-full text-left accordion__button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-academic-environment\">\n                <span class=\"flex-1 ml-auto text-left break-words whitespace-normal cu-icon\">\n                    Academic Environment\n                <\/span>\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" stroke-width=\"1.5\" stroke=\"currentColor\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-slot=\"icon\" class=\"w-5 h-5 ml-auto transition-transform rotate-0 accordion__icon text-cu-black-500\">\n                    <path stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" d=\"M8.25 4.5l7.5 7.5-7.5 7.5\"><\/path>\n                <\/svg>\n            <\/button>\n        <\/dt>\n        <dd class=\"p-0 mt-0 cu-prose cu-prose-first-last accordion__content md:p-0 md:mt-0\" hidden=\"\" id=\"accordion-academic-environment\">\n            \n\n<p>&#8220;I do not have a strong French understanding and took CIREFF courses to obtain a B1 level certificate.
