First open house day at Campus France

On September 15th, Campus France opened its doors for the first time to all international scholarship students in the Île-de-France region registered in the France Alumni. The day was created to allow them to complete on the spot and in one afternoon only all their processes in relation with their setting in France.

About 150 scholarship students came to open a bank account, register to a student insurance, complete processes for a residence permit and get information on social security and cultural activities with Campus France.  About 31 of them even had the chance to find a tutor through the association IxESN* and its buddy system program.

The day was also an opportunity for scholarship students to meet and exchange info about their arrival in France. Alumni welcomed them, gave advice and shared their experience with them.
