Conditions of study in France
To be able to study in a higher education institution in France, you must:
- be authorized to study on a higher education programme in your home country
- have a sufficient level of French to be able to follow the courses in French as attested by the Common European Framework Of Reference For Languages (CECR).
If you fulfil these conditions, you can enrol at BRASSART by sending your request to the International Relations Department.
If you are accepted, you will be able to apply to your French Consulate for a student visa, unless you are a UE or EEA citizen and do not require a visa. Once you are in France, you will be able to ask for a long-term permit for studies (VLTS).
The Campus France Agency provides with a lot of information about the application process for study in France. For some programmes, as BRASSART is a member of the Campus France Forum, you can apply through their online platform CampusArt between November and February each year and benefit from support in the administrative process.
Health insurance
Health insurance is mandatory for students in France. France is the only country which provides a specific health insurance institution dedicated to students. Depending on your age and your home country, you will have to follow a specific course of action to ensure that you have health insurance cover. Please go to the French Health Insurance to know which case applies to you.
