Applying To French Universities Through The Etudes en France Platform

Students who reside in one of the countries affected by the "Etudes en France" (Studying in France) procedure must make a specific request for enrolment in an institute of higher education.

A SINGLE ONLINE SERVICE FOR ALL PROCEDURES

The Etudes en France platform is completely dematerialized and manages all of the enrollment procedures for an institute of higher education up until the visa request. Just create a private electronic file and follow the instructions.

You can also file your enrolment applicationstalk with the Campus France office in your country, and communicate with the institute you wish to enroll in.

This platform is MANDATORY for all students making applications to French universities i.e. Bachelor and Master.

You will be asked to pay an administrative fee of KES7999 for this procedure.

There are two instances where one can use the platform.

1. If you are applying to a French university listed in the Etudes en France platform
