Before going abroad, students should think about and find out about the cost of living and studying, financing, health insurance in case of illness… It is also necessary to check the administrative procedures to be carried out. Above all, you must choose your destination carefully.
Indeed, the procedures are not the same for each country. For a national of the European Union, it is much easier to enter the universities of member countries thanks to the Erasmus exchange programme. This European exchange programme is very popular and offers a wide range of destinations.
Access to other institutions such as American universities is more complex, unless the French institution has an exchange programme with it. If for studies in Europe, only the passport is necessary, for French students wishing to deepen their knowledge outside the continent, it is necessary to apply for a student visa or a working holiday visa at the embassy of the country.
The documents to be provided for this are generally the letter of validation from the chosen university, then a document ensuring that the student will be able to pay for his or her tuition fees and living expenses in the country. Some countries also require a minimum language level. To demonstrate their language level, applicants will have to take tests such as the TOEIC or TOEFL.
Once the visa has been granted, it is also important to find out about the local lifestyle: travel, student accommodation, cost of living, etc.
