Because some subjects require more detailed information, the International Students & Scholars Office (ISSO) of Université Grenoble Alpes organizes information webinars on various topics: accommodation, residence permits, steps to take upon arrival, healthcare, etc.
You will find here the programme, as well as the links to register to the upcoming information sessions.
What criteria should you consider? What budget should you allow for? What is the CROUS? An "état des lieux"? Is it mandatory?
ISSO will answer these questions and many more, to help you best prepare in your search for accommodation in Grenoble.
