Your situation
You must be over 18 years of age.
You must have already chosen your training course or studies. For more comprehensive information about the courses and diploma preparations on offer, please visit Campus France.
You must be accepted by a higher education establishment. Enrolment conditions differ depending on your nationality, please check the études en France website to see if your country or territory is included in the online enrolment scheme. For other countries or territories, check the enrolment conditions in terms of specialities and level of education on Campus France.
Digitization
The France-Visas application offers students the option of submitting digital copies of all the supporting documents they require as soon as they enter their visa application online. This approach, which should be encouraged, will speed up the process of going to the external service provider, if one is present in your country of residence, with access to a dedicated counter. Initially, this feature will only be available to applicants for long-stay student visas residing in a country where the visa application is outsourced and available online. The requirements for digitization are detailed here.
When validating your application, please check that your documents are legible and correctly integrated into the associated sections.
Please note, that in some countries, in the event of an erroneous digitization or no digitization at all, our service provider will intervene to rectify or digitize the documents during your appointment. You will be billed for this service, if it is included in the ancillary service charges. It is therefore advisable to check the amount of any such charges beforehand on the approved service provider's appointment booking site.
