Entry requirements

When applying to a higher education institution, you must present your A-levels (baccalauréat) or undergraduate degree (licence). Entry requirements vary for each university, so make sure you contact institutions directly to ensure your application is correct.

For French-speaking courses, you are required to take a Test de Connaissance du Francais (TCF). This can be organised by the French Ministries for National Education and Higher Education and Research and is designed to test your French language capabilities.

There are around 700 postgraduate programmes in France that are taught in English. Generally speaking, candidates for these courses are not required to speak French
