colleges/universities in france

[caligirl]

I'm interested in transferring from a community college to a school in france but I don't know anything about any of the schools france. I'd like to go to a school that is in a relatively big city and that has a good international business program.

Any thoughts?

I presume you are American. I think that you should learn as much as you can about French education before even contemplating a move into a system that will be alien to you. I suggest you find a copy of  "Sixty Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong" as a starting point and read the chapters on higher education. Culturally, the French and American higher education systems are on different planets.

Try the IAE Caen - they have links with US Universities via their Centre Franco-Americain, and take foreign students - info here:

Hello Sandeep,

The cost of living will depend on whereabouts you are going to be studying, Paris is very expenses, although I should imagine there is more opportunity of work there.   I suggests you contact where you are going to be studying and ask about help looking for work.  There are lots of international stuents in most of the university towns, but mix with the locals, its the quickest way to learn french!

Good Luck
