What are the application conditions for graduate students studying in France?
France is a romantic city with beautiful environment, good living atmosphere and emotional appeal. At the same time, French universities offer many scholarships to students, and many people want to study in France. So what are the application conditions for studying in France? Let me show you something.

1. There are two main conditions for applying for postgraduate study in France, one is internal conditions (self), and the other is external conditions (such as economic and family status). The following are the details:

1) internal conditions: my own conditions are education and work experience. Generally speaking, if you want to apply for French graduate students, your education should be at least a bachelor's degree or a college graduate recognized by China for at least three years. Bachelor degree or above is not required to submit work experience, and three-year college graduates need work experience, so college students can also apply to study in France, but they can only apply if they meet the requirements of the school.

2) External conditions: mainly economic conditions. Whether studying or doing other things, the first thing to consider is whether you have such economic conditions to do it. Please go to France for postgraduate study. Although public schools do not need to pay tuition fees, a year's life needs at least 40,000-50,000 yuan/year, and private or other types of schools are basically1.50-250,000 yuan/year. The other is the family, whether the family supports it and whether the physical condition is qualified.

2. Postgraduate study in France is based on the specific application conditions of specific majors.

1) full French teaching major: French certificate or at least 500 hours of French class experience in China.

2) English teaching major: either English teaching major: either English teaching major: IELTS score or TOEFL. Generally speaking, the most basic requirements for scores are TOEFL score above 550 and IELTS score above 6.0.

3. Matters needing attention in the report

1) Advance statement: Unlike other countries, the French postgraduate application starts one year in advance (note that it is application rather than preparation). Because French universities attach great importance to auditing, they may ask for interviews, so they have enough time to prepare and deal with all aspects in advance.

2) Choose institutions and majors that suit you: There are many kinds of institutions and majors in France. Try to choose schools according to your own economic situation instead of the public. If the economy is average, you should choose institutions; The other is that popular majors may not be suitable for their own majors. An industry, whether it is a good job or a bad job, must learn well before it has a chance to do well. Don't go with the flow, just choose a popular major.

Second, time planning 1. Prepare materials. Learn French (September to 65438+February)

In September, you can start preparing all kinds of materials needed for your application and start learning French. As an international student in China who has no basic knowledge of French, it takes at least 500 hours to learn French, so that you can have a better foundation of French.

French postgraduate application materials: passport: birth notarization, university diploma, university degree certificate (if any), university transcript. Here is a reminder of the bank account: because applying for studying in France needs to provide bank flow for nearly half a year, if there is no time deposit or insufficient deposit in the account, it is best to prepare the account in advance, and there is no big difference during the period, and deposit it in batches every month.

2. Apply for the school (1 until March of the following year)

French universities open twice a year, 1 to February and 1 to September. Due to the limited number of China students in French universities, it is best for domestic students to start applying for jobs in advance, that is, to apply for courses in June and February of the following year, and to apply for courses in September and June.

3. Get hired (April to May of the second year)

If students who have submitted their applications are admitted to a French university, they will usually receive an admission notice from the school from April to May. At the same time, due to the requirements of the school and visa, students must attend 500 hours of French training in China and take the TEF or TCF French proficiency test sponsored by the Cultural Section of the French Embassy in China.

According to the examination schedules of TEF and TCF, February, March, July, August and September are the peak periods of the training courses. Training usually takes 3-4 months. Therefore, students who plan to study in France should be prepared at least half a year in advance.

4. Language test (May of the following year)

To apply for postgraduate courses in French universities, students are required to study French for at least 500 hours (full-time study takes about 4 months) and pass the French proficiency test. The preparatory course needs to reach the level of B 1, and the direct recording needs to reach the level of B2-C 1. In addition, French is used for face-to-face interviews. In addition, it should be noted that the score of B 1 should be obtained in May of the following year at the latest.

Students who plan to study abroad in the coming autumn had better learn French as soon as possible, and the more preparation time, the better. If the result is not satisfactory, you can have a second interview. But at the latest in early June of the following year. The examination fee will be remitted to the examination fee&; Select the examination time. Pay attention to the remittance time of the registration fee before the exam.

5. Visa interview stage (June-August of the following year)

Students who have received the admission notice from French universities need to start preparing for applying for a French visa. The process is signed by French higher education institutions, and then the visa materials are submitted to the visa center. At present, the French visa is relatively loose, and the pass rate of applying for a French visa for the first time is generally above 80%. When signing in person, pay special attention to the language and the performance of answering questions.

6. Prepare for departure (August to September of the following year)

Advantages of studying in France 1. Excellent educational welfare

Superior educational benefits. Every year, more than 23% (nearly 654.38 billion euros) of French national finance is spent on education. Like domestic students, foreign students can enjoy housing, medical care and many subsidies, such as insurance and transportation. Master students can also apply for a scholarship of 600 euros/month.

2. The cost of studying abroad is reasonable

In the past 20 years, the quality of business teaching in France has also been greatly improved. There are more than a dozen famous higher business schools in Europe. At the same time, the cost of studying abroad is much lower than that of going to Commonwealth countries. If you study in a public university, the total cost for three years (tuition+living expenses) will not exceed 200,000 yuan; If you choose a private college, the total cost for two years will not exceed 250,000 yuan. Moreover, the economic security requirements are not high, and you can deposit more than 70,000 yuan, without proof of deposit term and source of funds. French national universities are not only free of tuition, but also free of housing subsidies ranging from 20% to 70%! The cost of living in France is also cheaper than in countries such as the United States; To study in France, you'd better study French for 500 hours at home and pass the Tcf or tef exam, otherwise you won't understand what others are saying! If you go to France for an exam, you'd better write more and practice your writing! However, when you go to France, you must read French. In addition to music majors, I usually read 15 hours of Chinese every week.

3. Professional advantages

Among the EU countries, each country has its own outstanding teaching advantages: for example, Germany is better than machinery, Britain is better than commerce, and Nordic countries are good at electronics and computer technology. The dominant education disciplines in France are basic science (mathematics), physics, chemistry, telecommunication engineering, traffic engineering, biochemical technology and architectural art. In the past 20 years, the quality of business teaching in France has also been greatly improved. There are more than a dozen famous higher business schools in Europe, such as Oulus.
