Adama Sarr rated 5 out of 5 stars

I am a junior student in Languages, Business and International trade at the university of Orleans. My languages are English and Spanish.

Un cadre sympathique mais qui laisse à désirer
Provided by ESN rated 4 out of 5 stars

L'Université d'orléans n'est pas une mauvaise université. Néanmoins, en droit, les rapports entre étudiants et chargés de TD se font parfois difficiles. Ausi, l'administration de l'Université d'orléans manque souvent de réactivité.

Good international experience
Michel DIALLO rated 1 out of 5 stars

it's a good university with a lots of program. the University is located in a very nice and cool city where student find themselves in peace. Teachers are very friendly and there are several books in the library. The cost of study is cheap, then very accessible. The university has many facilities.
