But Paris is not France...

[@RheaxGarde]

Yes although I agree that I can't generalise my experience in Paris with the whole of France, I have noticed that there are many similarities. For example language difficulties especially at prefectures, documentations that every foreigner in France needs, making french friends.. these are all very similar experiences across France

Hello , my daughter who is trying for masters admission in grenoble paris in September intake. Can you guide me about monthly living expenses in Paris for international students. And also status of finding part-time job for students??? Waiting for kind response 🎀

[@puccaland]

Grenoble isn't in Paris, is far away from Paris, is a students town and is cheaper than Paris. Type prix moyen loyer [insert place] to get the average real accommodation price in any place. Agencies specialising in foreigners will always charge you more.

[@sourabhchauhan3059]

To get job in france after masters is French language compulsory

[@RheaxGarde]

Yes, most of the jobs will require you to speak both english and french fluently

I have successfully got the visa. Still looking for accommodation and roommates as i cant cook. Any advice?

[@RheaxGarde]

Congrats on getting your visa! I’ll advice you to learn how to cook, and to not be dependent on your roommates for food. Also, for accommodation getting a french guarantor first before applying to places can help

[@RheaxGarde]

@@Ankit_Vlogs2001 you should normally get a payment receipt from your bank that you can then send to your university

@@RheaxGarde hello maam I thought I have to go through campus France and then visa but I have seen CEVEC also can you please tell what are the mandatory process I have to go through after paying university fees please help me this maam just this

[@RheaxGarde]

​@@Ankit_Vlogs2001 CVEC is a student tax that you have to pay once the enrolment in your school has been finalised. You can pay CVEC after your visa is finalised via Campus France. Other than this, i'll advice you to get your documents translated in french, and your birth certificate apostiled and translated in french
