I had a lot of friends from asian countries in my university (about 10% foreign students there) and they paid exactly the same as me. They even got the 40% aid from the government on apartment rent as students... The only foreign students who paid a lot of money at my university were exchange students from the us who paid their normal tuition to the american university and studied in my university for a year... In exchange, some of the french students did the same, paid the almost free tuition in france and studied in the american university for a year...
