One: French is very important.
Whether public or private, teaching in English or French, majoring in art or economics, it is very necessary to master the teaching language when studying in France. The teaching language of French public universities is French, and only a few schools offer English teaching for individual majors. Therefore, students who choose to study in public universities must have a good French foundation, which is not only to meet the visa requirements, but also to lay the foundation for smooth graduation. Students with good English scores in high school can choose English-taught projects, which are generally concentrated in business administration schools in "big schools", and their majors are mostly business subjects.
Second, different kinds of study abroad majors have different choice strategies.
High school graduates in China are generally divided into three categories: liberal arts students, science students and art students, and the three categories of students have different strategies in choosing their majors.
French art students have always been one of the first choices for studying abroad. Generally, students who choose to study in French art colleges need to submit their works when applying, so such colleges recommend art graduates to study. Of course, for fashion design, a popular major in France, although the school does not require art graduates when applying, experts studying abroad do not recommend students without any artistic foundation to study. If you are interested in this major, it is very necessary to make up some sketching knowledge during the holiday.
Science students for science students who have achieved excellent results in the college entrance examination, experts recommend participating in the elite education project "Five-year Engineer College" in France. After graduation, students can get a master's degree and a double diploma as engineers, covering many fields of science and engineering such as computer, communication, biology, chemical industry and electric power. Students generally need to attend the preparatory course of 1 year school after the interview, and enter the next year's professional study, such as French senior electrical engineer.
Liberal arts students For liberal arts graduates who want to study literature, language and media, experts suggest choosing public universities. Because the vast majority of public universities are research-oriented institutions with extensive courses and rigorous teaching, students can be influenced by culture to a certain extent.
Students who want to study business can give priority to the elite education project "School of Business Administration" if their family economic conditions permit. During the entrance interview, the school will comprehensively examine students' business acumen and language ability, and issue different admission notices according to students' learning requirements and their own situation. Of course, it is a good decision for working families to choose a public university majoring in business. For example, students who are interested in studying economics and finance can refer to university of amiens, Lyon II University and Tours University. Tourism management majors such as the University of Sava, the University of Angers, and the University of Pepilion are also quite good choices for high school students with clear learning goals.
Three: Students who fail in the college entrance examination can also successfully stay in France.
For students who failed in the college entrance examination, the first step to study abroad is to get the visa officer to recognize your learning ability and get a French study visa. Such students choose some professional institutions, such as BTS in France, or attend preparatory courses offered by public universities. In addition, high school students are relatively free to choose their majors because they have no professional background in domestic universities, so don't limit their eyes to a few traditional majors. In the current economic environment, it is also a good choice to study a technology abroad. For example, product design, image design, wine tasting, western food and western food are all practical majors, which are not strict in language requirements, have a large demand and have great employment advantages.

First, prepare in advance.
Everything is done in advance, and planning before doing things will make the whole process smoother. Although the plan can't keep up with the changes, the general direction can bring us closer to the finish line.
There are many schools in this country. If you want to be admitted, you should first consider your academic background, whether it comes from 2 1 1/985. If not, you need to work harder and sweat more.
In addition to carefully selecting schools, the research direction is also a point that needs extreme attention. Especially in the master's and doctoral stages, the subjects to be studied will be more detailed. If you can't find the right one at the beginning, you will feel extremely boring after learning, not to mention the desire to learn well. You will be listless in class, and listening to the professor will not resonate. I will be very passive when I wait for the final exam, and I may not be able to graduate normally and need to postpone it.
Second, capital reserve.
The cost of studying abroad is definitely higher than that in China. How can we effectively save it?
1) The mentality should be correct, boys should not blindly pursue fashionable electronic products, girls should be able to consume rationally, don't compare with classmates and friends around them, and don't blindly envy the luxury of clothes.
2) It is necessary to buy second-hand bicycles. Riding a bicycle every day can exercise the strength of the lower limbs and keep fit. It can also reach several kilometers quickly in Fiona Fang, saving a lot of time and cost on the road.
3) Buy some cookers. It would be better if you live on a floor with a kitchen. Cooking by yourself can greatly improve your self-care ability and cooking skills, and you can also invite teachers and classmates to be guests to increase your happiness and interest in life.
4) It's more cost-effective to share a room, and it's better to find a partner, because the course arrangement is consistent, and we can have dinner and class together at ordinary times and have a common topic of chatting, which can enhance mutual emotional communication, shorten the distance of spiritual communication and cultivate deep and sincere friendship.
Third, go out to play.
Safety first, keep personal belongings well.
1) The student ID card can be carried with you, and you can enjoy various fare concessions, such as buying tickets for scenic spots and taking buses.
2) The nearby shops have completed their membership cards in advance, and after one semester, they will find that they have saved a lot of points.
3) Credit cards are very convenient, and large shopping malls have credit card machines, so you don't have to pay cash.

The former is equivalent to an ordinary comprehensive university, while the latter, like Beijing Film Academy and Central Academy of Drama, trains outstanding talents who focus on a certain field, such as dramatists, musicians, sculptors and so on.
2) according to their own ability to declare some consistent, too low and too high is not good, try to declare a top ranking, not only can learn real skills, but also get good employment opportunities.
3) Generally, it is filled in and submitted online. After obtaining the offer, you should apply for a visa on the website in time.
4) Before filling in the form, sort out the experience of high school and undergraduate course, and record all kinds of award-winning projects or internship practice projects in the form, which is convenient for direct uploading and copying, and can save a lot of time.
Second, is the living expenses expensive? How to save it?
Paris, the capital, should be the most expensive. Generally speaking, the cost is not low, and various plans need to be made.
1) ceramic bicycle
As long as the price is moderate, the quality does not need to be excellent. If it is broken, it will be replaced. It will be great when you have a car, because you can go to the vegetable market to buy ingredients, find a book in a nearby bookstore, get a haircut in a barber shop, order a hamburger with iced coke in a fast food restaurant and so on. All this can be done quickly, and Fiona Fang can easily reach five or six kilometers without waiting for a bus.
2) Add a small pot
It is convenient to boil water, make soup and so on. At the same time, you can learn some essence by buying a cookbook and reading the contents above. Over time, your cooking can be greatly improved.
This will not only ensure that water and food are healthy and pollution-free, but also save a lot of money. Why not?
3) Strive for housing subsidies
Students who are basically studying at school can get a certain percentage of subsidies, provided that the information is complete and clear, that is to say, when negotiating with the landlord, a formal rental contract with signature and seal should be signed. If they have a residence permit, it will be more concise and convenient.
Third, how important is language?
French is very extensive, depending on which course you choose. Generally speaking, you teach in French or English, and everyone else is involved. It will take a long time to study hard and learn it well. Boldly speaking, it is the first step. As long as you dare to express your views to teachers and students, you will make progress gradually, without worrying about being laughed at by others, and no one will do so. When you say it, the feedback you get is always positive.
