Useful Resources

Here are a few useful resources to help you get organised and make your life in Reims a little easier. Feel free to explore and use them whenever you need! Happly planning ✌️

Good to Know: Important Contacts

📍 On campus

For anything related to your studies, reach out to the office in charge of supporting international students. In most schools and universities, it’s called the International Relations Office (or Direction des Relations Internationales in French).

At smaller institutions, there might be just one contact person for both French and international students. In that case, it’s best to start by asking the main office or student services to find out who to talk to.

📍 Student life

For everything related to student life, ESN Reims is here for you! Our mission: making sure your integration in Reims goes as smoothly as possible 🙌

📍 Admin

For administrative procedures like CAF, CROUS, or the prefecture, we recommend checking out our dedicated articles — they’re packed with useful info to help you navigate it all more easily.

And if you’re looking for emergency numbers, we’ve listed them right below ⬇️

🆘 Emergencies

• European emergency number | 112
• Fire brigade | 18
• Emergency Police number | 17
• Emergency Medical Assistance Service (SAMU) | 15
