Has anyone applied to an French university?
I'm in year 10 and I would like to go to uni in France. Most sixth forms I've contacted have said it's basically up to me to do everything so I'm just wondering how complicated it is to apply?
How does it work with A Levels instead of having the IB, I know they're equivalent but how do I find the subjects a uni prefers and the grade requirements?
Also for the people who are studying or have studied there as an international student, how was it?

Look on the parcourse website, look on YouTube and on the French government website. What course would you be interested in?
Also French A-level is usually accepted but try to get a DELFB2 minimum/ C1 if you have the time and money as the top unis will prefer it , it’s an exam for which you can self study or take a course.
Other then that I’m a yr 12 who is French and did some research into it but for the course I wanted to do it wasn’t worth the hassle but I’m still keeping an open mind
Good luck

I'm thinking of studying marketing, either at a uni or business school.
I'm trying to improve my french, my aim is to get to B2 by the end of my A Level

From what I’ve seen France is good for business and humanities, so you shouldn’t need to worry too much yet about finding a course but don’t leave it too late. Also, when you find the unis that interest you ask them directly about entry requirements, as most websites are aimed at French students studying in France.
LSE has a College where each yr you study in a different country, including France, which maybe worth looking at of business and marketing are your thing
