To be a freshman at university is very stressful but I'll try to give you some advice to make it more pleasant ;)
My first tip should be about the paperwork... haha like you have maybe already noticed, the organisation in French university is rather popular for its slowness and incompetence. So please, be providing, when you have an appointment, take with you all the papers that you can imagine !!! This advice seems so childish but believe me, it can make your student life less stressful and avoid you many roundtrip !
My second tip is about the school work... yeah I know, "school work" is a terrible word and when you arrive at university and see that there are no exams before january, it's really tempting to only enjoy the student life and learn your lessons later... later... later XD haha but you know, it's really a trap ! Because when you arrive at january, it's TOO LATE ! You can't learn all a semester in few days, believe me, I already tried and... it was an epic fail !!! So try don't lose the rhythm and do your best ^^
Anyway, my third tip will be more happy ;) indeed you're at university, it's wonderful ! You are finally rid to your teachers and parents so enjoy your student life !!! At the beginning uni is a little hard, you don't know anyone and all around you looks unfriendly but go to other people and you'll see that everybody are like you... You can join many associations, I think it's a good way to make friends with same interest than you and there's something for every taste ! Go to theater, cinemas, mall, in a nutshell ENJOY ! Furthermore in Grenoble we really have a big chance: there are many foreigners students so...
Don't be shy and open your mind on the world !!!
