Campus France interviews confirm academic fit, program choices, and financing. Expect questions on why France, why these programs, your career goals, and how you’ll fund tuition and living costs.

Preparation tips

  • Bring printed SOP/CV, program list with rationales, scholarship/loan proofs, and a concise budget.
  • Practice in English (and French if possible) with clear outcomes and timelines.

Avoid common pitfalls

A tight narrative reduces follow-up questions and speeds approvals. We run mock sessions that mirror Campus France style to refine your answers and documents.

  • Vague budgets or unclear program rationale.
  • Weak links between your background and the specialization.
