Students staying in France for more than three months will be provided with a Long Stay Visa (Visa Long Séjour). During your first three months with us, you will need to sort out administrative formalities at the French Office for Immigration and Integration (OFII).

  • Don’t forget to apply for your student visa as soon as your application has been accepted.
