Université d'Orléans (reviews)

The university has a diverse and increasing range of degrees, and has all basic infrastructures needed by student, such as student accommodations, restaurants, 3 libraries. It is a growing and promising university.

I had the opportunity to study at this university for one semester and I really enjoyed it. As an Erasmus student, I had all the support I required and everybody was ready to help. Also, the French Classes at the Institut de Francais, recommended by UO were extremely useful. Also, the library is well organised and has plenty of books.

What I really liked is that professors and administration are really attentive to students opinion. We could change courses, could always openly say what we didn’t like and be sure it will be reviewed.

Some courses have too much general information, which is not masters degree level in my opinion. However, many other subjects that I had now are very useful during my internship.

I also would like the University to help its students to find internships.

As to the general impression of the 2 years of studies, it is rather positive and I would recommend it.

A good learning experience being an international student surrounded by multicultural students from all over the world. The quality of education is good with well-known faculties available but could be improved (especially when teaching international students in the English language and few professors face difficulties in expressing their thoughts in English).
Few people at the student administration department(Les Hetres) are not always friendly unless you speak good French. It may not always leave a good impression. Instead of showing unfriendly behavior, encourage them in a positive way to learn French.
Options are available to perform extracurricular activities like sports etc.
Overall, I recommend this University.
