Inscription fees and conditions

The inscription dates vary depending on the university and study program chosen. It is advisable to complete the necessary paperwork before the beginning of the program. Address your queries to the Office of International Relations.

Foreign students who have a higher secondary (A levels) foreign degree and wish to pursue an undergraduate degree in France need to follow particular steps. They need to ask for an admission with preconditions. The student must go to the embassy of France in his home country and take a form of admissions with preconditions (admission préalable) — last date for withdrawal : January 15. When he submits his completed form (Dates between 1 December to 31 January) he has to select a field and name 2 universities in the order of priorities. All certificates translated into French should be attached to the form. In February, there is a French language test held by the National Ministry of education and organized by the Embassy of France in concerned countries. Before 15 March the files along with the results of the language test are sent to the concerned universities. After 15 April the universities give their reply regarding acceptance or rejection of an application.
Foreign students who already have undergraduate degrees from home countries must present their completed application forms to the higher education institutions where they wish to study. Their diplomas must be translated in to French and describe the educational system in their home country (notes, courses taken, number of hours worked…).
When the institution is a university, the student must address a demand directly to Service of education, formation and research asking them to recognize his diploma. The completed application forms must reach the university in the month of May.

For Grandes Écoles and business schools, the steps to follow and the deadlines are different depending on the university. The best way to find out details on application and admission criteria and deadlines is to contact the schools of interest.
