Frequently Asked Questions – Study in France
1. Why should Indian students choose France for higher studies?
France offers world-class education, strong Indo–France academic partnerships, and globally recognised degrees. Indian students benefit from a balanced academic and work ecosystem, affordable tuition fees, attractive scholarship opportunities, and post-study work options. These advantages make France an excellent destination for both academic excellence and long-term professional growth.
2. What are the eligibility requirements for studying in France?
For undergraduate programs, a minimum of 50% in 12th grade is generally required. For postgraduate studies, applicants must hold a bachelor’s degree with at least a 2.0 GPA or equivalent. English or French language proficiency tests such as IELTS or TOEFL are mandatory depending on the program language. Some specialised courses may require GRE or GMAT scores. SOPs and LORs are essential to demonstrate academic goals, skills, and motivation.
3. Can Indian students work while studying in France?
Yes. International students are permitted to work up to 964 hours per year (approximately 20 hours per week). Common employment options include on-campus roles, hospitality, tutoring, and administrative positions. While part-time work can help manage living expenses, students must still demonstrate sufficient financial resources for visa approval, as part-time income cannot be the primary funding source.
4. What are the post-study work and PR opportunities in France?
After graduation, students may apply for a 12 to 24 month post-study work visa. Gaining relevant professional experience can lead to a long-term work permit, and eligibility for permanent residency may be achieved after meeting residency and employment requirements. France offers structured and practical pathways for Indian students aspiring to build long-term careers within Europe.
