Compulsory registration on the Etudes en France platform
As of October 1, 2021, Canada will join the Études en France (EEF) platform. This is a centralised online service for all registration procedures in higher education in France for foreign students.
For more information, please read this page: "How to apply for your visa if you have been accepted into a French higher education program?"
No visa obligation for European students
If you are a citizen of a European Economic Area country (European Union country (EU), Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein) or Switzerland, you do not need a student visa to study or carry out an internship in France. You may freely enter French territory regardless of the length of your stay or your studies.
On the other hand, you must have a health and maternity insurance and sufficient financial resources to meet your needs during your stay.
