Association partnerships: resources for your international students

Your international students arrive in France with a thousand questions: paperwork, housing, insurance, everyday life… With a Study in France partnership, your association has the answers.

What’s included: the Student Hub, which guides them step by step through their paperwork, with an exclusive promo code for your students; our housing space to find a place to live; and a profile of your association on Study in France, so international and French students alike get to know you.

A quick look at our association partnerships

Join us in our mission to make it easier for international students to prepare, settle in, and feel at home in France.

  • A dedicated app for your students

    We create a dedicated space for your association on our app, the Student Hub.

    The Student Hub brings together all the essential information and resources international students at your school need to prepare for their time in France.

  • A page to showcase your association

    We feature your association on our website with a personalized page, co-written with you, to introduce your team and your mission.

    It’s a great way to boost your visibility! 👌

  • Funding for your events

    We also want to support your initiatives by helping finance events you organize at the start of the academic year.

    City tours, social events, weekend trips—any activity that helps students settle in and feel at home is eligible!

How do we help international students?

It’s simple: we bring together all the key information, resources, and tips that international students need in one place. And if they can’t find the answer online, our community helpers are there to guide them ☺️

Visas, housing, guarantors, health insurance, student insurance, bank accounts, rental insurance, APL (housing aid), French courses… We cover it all!

And thanks to the support of our partners—schools, associations, and institutions—we do everything we can to ensure students have a great experience on-site. As former Erasmus students and ESN network members, we know how crucial those first few weeks on campus are and how much student associations matter.

That’s why we’re so committed to partnering with associations! But what does this mean for you?

  • A Dedicated Space on the Student Hub: Your own section on our app, so international students at your school can easily find all the information they need.
  • A Personalized Page: We create a page on our association platform with you to introduce your team and increase your visibility among students.
  • A Communication Kit: To help with September and January intakes, we provide posters, social media visuals, and goodies 🎉

    Everything was new to me and I don’t speak a word of French. I got paired with a French student through the buddy system, that helped a lot. Many thanks from Turkey!

    Conocí Study in France como tres meses después de llegar a Francia 😅 ya era un poco tarde para mí, pero la idea es genial. Las guías son muy claras. Si pudieran poner contenido sobre las démarches en la préfecture, sería genial… eso fue lo peor para mí jaja

    I was super lost with all the French stuff tbh. Your website made it wayyy easier, especially figuring out health insurance, the bank stuff, and my mobile plan. Saved me a lot of stress.

    Thanks for this, really. I was kinda overwhelmed at first but your site made things way easier. Used it for the bank and finding a guarantor. Hope you bring it to other cities soon!

    Le site m’a vraiment aidé avec le logement. J’avais jamais entendu parler de Visale avant. C’est bien pour les étudiants qui arrivent seuls.

    France is not easy at first but this site made it way easier to deal with documents. Would be cool to have more examples or like Youtube shorts 😉

    Honestly the Student Hub helped me a lot. I didn’t know anything about CAF and Visale but now it’s clear. Thank you so much!

    Franchement trop pratique, j’ai utilisé le Hub pour la recherche d'appart et l’assurance habitation. Pour le forfait ça aurait pu m'intéresser mais j'avais déjà pris avant. Juste une remarque : pouvez-vous créer une app mobile ? Ce serait bcp plus simple. Merci 😊

    Very useful. I used it for opening my bank account and to understand which home insurance to get. Feels made for us. Would love a mobile app though.

    I liked the tone of your website, just clear and helpful. I used it to get a guarantor and also for getting my Korrigo card in Rennes. Didnt need for bank since I already had a N26 account 😜

Frequently asked questions

You’ve got questions? We’ve got answers!

  • Who can apply for a partnership?

    Any student association in France that welcomes international students is welcome to join! ☺️

  • How much does the Student Hub cost for students?

    Access to the Student Hub costs a one-off €30. That’s what funds the app and keeps us 100% independent.

See how Study in France is funded.

  • How does the creation of our association page work?

    It’s super easy! We start by discussing what you want to highlight. Then, we adapt a pre-existing template to fit your association’s identity and mission. Once approved, your page goes live on our platform 😉

  • What’s included in the communication kit?

    It depends on the size of your school and the number of international students you welcome. Generally, it includes A4 posters, social media visuals, and goodies!
