Visiting students must make sure they reach a sufficient level of French before the courses start. MINES ParisTech can give contact details of French language schools in France, but no funding will be given for such courses.
They will be offered access to student accommodation (rooms at Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris), upon availability.
They are expected to register at MINES ParisTech on the day indicated on their admission letter.
They will have to prove they are fully registered at their home university in order to be waived of tuition fees at MINES ParisTech, and for their stay to be valid.
