It was really difficult to find a video with good info addressing uni in France..thank you

Hi Nora, Just a small correction : ''Grandes Ecoles" in France are not private institutions, for the majority they are public. They are more selective in a sense that you have to pass a competitive exam to be admitted.

Only some Engineering schools are public. The business schools are not

the most difficult thing for people at la sorbonne is to get a degree from the best program. for entering into licence, it is very contingent on many factors, easier for some lucky guys, harder for some others. if you get a place, you are lucky. for entering into master programs, it is very selective

(Nantes or Paris, for international student) 1) If someone is an EU citizen but takes the national Baccalaureate in their (EU) country (which I heard isn't the same as the European Bac, since that's only done in "European Schools" and the student went to a national school. Even the number of exams taken is different.. but maybe I'm mistaken?), is that national bac still valid in France if they also have DALF? If not, is there a way to get it recognized or to take an equivalency exam or to take the European/French Bac without having to repeat the courses? And does the person still use Parcoursup and pay the same fees as other EU citizens? 2) If the application deadline is 6 months before the Bac exam, but the admission requires a certain grade on the Bac, can the student still apply and send the Bac scores later?

Not necessarily, you can in some cases submit a letter from your school or academic institution confirming your expected graduation date (an official letter signed by a school official) that some French universities may accept as proof of your imminent graduation. You can also request a provisional certificate from your school saying that you have completed all requirements for graduation, pending final examinations + other formalities. In any case, make sure to contact your target universities directly to see what alternative arrangements they have for students like you. Hope this helps!
