The Canadian Students’ House, la MEC, is
located in the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris, in the
14 e
arrondissement of the French capital. Since its creation in 1926,
it has welcomed thousands of Canadian students, teachers, researchers
and artists who have pursued their post-graduate studies and
researches in the different universities of Paris. Centrally
located, the House is an integral part of the intellectually and
culturally stimulating environment of the Cité Universitaire’s 40
houses and the cosmopolitan bustle of Paris.
The
House is proud to offer modern accommodations in a safe and
beautifully green setting. Our staff is committed, attentive to
your needs and dedicated to ensure you a comfortable stay in a
convivial and welcoming academic community. A resident committee
also provides social and cultural events, bringing dynamism and a
sense of community to the day to day life of the residents.
Entirely
renovated in 2006, the House provides a total of 123 rooms, 25
studios, two apartments, a computer room, a reading lounge, four
collective kitchens, two terraces, a banquet hall and a student
lounge. Each housing unit is equipped with an individual phone
line, high speed internet, a refrigerator, as well as a private
bathroom.
It is with great pleasure that I will welcome you here to the Canadian
Students’ House. I
assure you of my support to make your experience among us a memorable
one. Most importantly, I hope you can find here an energetic
environment for the successful completion of your studies and
