Welcome
in Midi-Pyrenees !
2012 - 2013
Situated
between the Mediterranean
Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, in the heart of Southern France, the MidiPyrenees region has long been a major crossroads in Europe and a vibrant
cultural and intellectual melting pot. Toulouse, the capital of the region, has
been fast growing for many years, both demographically and economically.
Today, a genuinely international city, “la Ville Rose”, as it is affectionately
known, and the Midi-Pyrenees region also boast a particularly rich diverse
cultural and artistic heritage.
Some key figures: (Insee source 01/01/2009)
Midi-Pyrenees
2 866 000 inhabitants
111 800 students in Albi, Auch, Cahors, Castres, Figeac, Foix,
Montauban, Rodez, Tarbes and Toulouse
Toulouse
440 000 inhabitants (Greater Toulouse: 656 000 inhabitants)
90 000 students
Toulouse counts 82% of the students and most of the research laboratories
of the Midi-Pyrenees region.

“Université de Toulouse”
The Cluster of Higher Education and Research was created in 2007. It gathers most higher
education and research institutions of the Midi-Pyrenees region. Thanks to the pooling
and sharing of resources, the universities and engineering schools actively participate in
common far-reaching projects in the areas of training and research.
“Université de Toulouse” aims to internationally promote the attractiveness of
Midi-Pyrenees and at providing all the international students, PhD students and researchers with the necessary help to adapt to their new environment.

1.
Higher education
in France
> Universities and Schools of
Higher education
To be accepted into a French university, you must have either the French
baccalauréat (the end of secondary school diploma equivalent to British
A levels or the American high school diploma), or an equivalent foreign
diploma.
There are two types of institutions:
- universities offer degree programs in all fields (arts, health, human and
social sciences, science, technology..)
- schools of Higher education: schools of engineering, business schools,
Toulouse Higher School of Architecture, National Veterinary School of
Toulouse, Engineering School of Purpan…
> Organization of higher education
programs
European countries have adopted a new common system for higher
education in order to facilitate the recognition of diplomas and degrees and
students’ mobility:
- the “LMD” system: Bachelor’s (3 yrs), Master’s (5 yrs), PhD (8 yrs)
- a semester-based organization: 1 year = 2 semesters - degree programs organized into “Unité d’Enseignements” (UE) or teaching
units which can be either compulsory or elective. They include lectures,
tutorials, internships, dissertations.
- the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS): each UE corresponds to
a certain number of ECTS (1 semester = 30 ECTS)

Finding an
accommodation
www.univ-toulouse.fr/logement
> looking for an accomodation
Finding accommodation may well be a real challenge and should be undertaken
as early as possible; things are easier on the sites of Albi, Auch, Castres, Figeac,
Foix, Montauban, Rodez or Tarbes than in Toulouse which counts 90,000
students. Please keep in mind that proof of address is required by many
organizations (banks, Prefecture…) and that some schools have their own
halls of residence on their campus.
> Students’accommodation
CROUS: 9 000 rooms and studios in Student Halls of Residence.
International students must apply to the International Relations Office of their host
institution (please note that second year Master’s degree and PhD students are given
top priority).
During the academic year, CROUS may allocate the remaining available rooms directly.
Vacancies are available on line on the CROUS website.

Visa and residence permit
The procedures vary according to the duration of your stay ( +
or - 3 months).We recommend you to ask for the « convention
d’accueil » with your host institution as soon as possible after
your arrival. It will be requested to obtain the visa.
Since fall 2011, the “scientifique-chercheur” visa has been
equivalent to the residence permit for up to one-year stay on
the French territory. No additional procedure needed with the
Prefecture when arriving in Toulouse !.
If you stay more than 1 year, you are requested to ask for a
temporary residence permit with the Prefecture at the latest 2
months prior to the date your residence permit or visa falls due.
The “convention d’accueil” and the Master’s degree certificate
will have to be appended to your application.
Health
Social security is compulsory and free if you have a job contract.
If you do not have any job contract, you are entitled to CMU
which is free or paying (according to your previous years’ income).
It also covers your spouse and children.

Visa & residence permit
After being accepted in a program, Admissions or International Services will send you an
acceptance letter. With this letter you may register on-line with the French Embassy or Consulate in
your country of origin to obtain a student visa (procedure CEF).
I. EUROPEAN STUDENTS
You are an EA citizen (ie from 1 of the 27 European Union countries, Liechtenstein, Norway or
Iceland) or from Switzerland: you don’t need a resident’s permit in order to study in France, just
your identity card or a valid passport and the European Health Insurance Card.
II. NON-EUROPEAN STUDENTS
To study in France, non-European students must hold a long stay visa called « VLS-TS ». This visa is
valid for 6 months up to 1 year and must be validated when you arrive in France.
Students who are already in France and hold a residence permit must renew it two months before
the end of the permit.
If you are Algerian, you are entitled to a long stay 3-month visa. On you arrival, you must apply for
the residence permit.
For the procedure, please refer to the second part “Obtain or renew the residence permit”.
If you are Romanian or Bulgarian and do not hold a Master 2 degree, you need a residence permit in
case you would like to work in France. To obtain the residence permit, please follow the second part
“Obtain or renew the residence permit”.
a. Validating the VLS-TS
When you got back your passport with the visa, the French Authorities also gave you a special
stamped form: Demande d’Attestation OFII.
Upon your arrival in France, this form has to be filled out with your definitive postal address
(MAISEL’s address) and your contact details (email and phone) and signed.
Once you have filled out and signed the attestation, you should give it to the person in charge of
foreign student affairs at TSP or TEM with:
A copy of your passport
A copy of the visa
A copy of the page with the date of entry in France (stamp from the customs)
Complete applications will be sent to the OFII center based in Créteil, then, one week later, you will
receive an acknowledgement.
After two weeks, you will receive another letter from OFII summoning you for a medical
examination. The mail is composed of three pages:
First page: date and time of the appointment and documents you have to bring with you
Second page: how to reach the OFII center
Third page: payment of the tax.
The tax stamp: you have to pay the fees as a stamp bearing the initials “OMI”. You can buy this
stamp:
Online from https://www.timbresofii.fr/
In some tobacco shops
In some tobacco shops
At offices of the French tax authorities.
At the end of the medical visit, your visa will be validated (they will stick a sort of label on your
passport) and you will get a medical certificate. You don’t need a residence permit because the visa
gives you the same rights, that means:
You can travel
You can complete all the administrative procedures
You can work (part-time job 60%)
TWO MONTHS BEFORE THE END OF THE VISA, YOU HAVE TO APPLY FOR THE RESIDENCE PERMIT.
b. Applying or renewing the residence permit
You have to apply for or renew the residence permit at the Police Administrative Headquarters
(Préfecture) for the area where you live 2 MONTHS before the end of your papers.
For Evry, it is “Préfecture de l’Essonne”, a 5 minute-walk from our campus.
The procedure is the same for both VLS-TS or residence permit.
Step1. You print the form with the list of documents requested from the website of the Police
Administrative Headquarters (Préfecture de l’Essonne): http://www.essonne.gouv.fr/sejouretrangers/index.html.
DON’T PANIC! Everything is in French but if you follow carefully the instructions, it will be easy:
Click on “Formulaire” in the red header
Select your nationality and click « OK »
“type de demande”, they ask you the topic of your request, you select “renouvellement de
titre de séjour”
They ask you…again “type de demande”, you have to give your status, you select “étudiant”
(student)
Step2. Now, there is a long sentence written in black and a kind of violet color. This first sentence
tells you to go to the “Préfecture” with your passport, the form and the materials requested.
To get the form you click on “formulaire et des pieces jointes” (in violet). A form (in French) appears.
The first part has to be filled in with your personal details and the second part is the list of
documents you have to prepare:
Original and copy of the passport
Original and copy of the VLS-TS and the OFII label OR original and copy of your residence
permit
Copy of your transcript of records
“attestation d’assiduité”, on this letter the school certifies that you are regularly enrolled in
a program and you regularly attend the courses
Evidence of financial support (scholarship, personal funds…)
Evidence of residence in Evry or in the Essonne Area
3 photos
If you hold a VLS-TS, you add:
Original and copy of your birth certificate in French
Original and copy of the OFII medical certificate
ALL THE DOCUMENTS MUST BE IN FRENCH. If you need to translate a document into French, a list
of official translators is available in Dir 209.
Step3. To have an appointment, you return to the last page and click on “prendre rendez-vous”
(second sentence).
You will thus open a page with the title “ACCUEIL”, you select the first proposition “EVRY: Prise de
Rendez-vous pour les ressortissants étrangers titulaires d’un titre avec la mention “étudiant”:
MODULE DE RESERVATION DE LA PREFECTURE : it is a short presentation of the system with
the legal mentions and condition of confirmation. You have to tick the box at the bottom of
the page to accept the conditions and click on “Effectuer une demande de reservation”
“Choix de la nature de réservation” : you select the first proposition and click on « Etape
suivante » and you chose a day and time for your appointment
You may have 30 minutes to confirm the appointment from your mailbox.
On the appointed day, you go to the “Préfecture” with your documents and the mail confirming the
appointment. Once your complete application is accepted, you will be issued with a receipt that
serves as an interim residence permit.
You will receive your annual residence permit within 2 to 3 weeks.
Bank account
How to open a bank account in France?
To open a bank account, you need to bring these documents to the banker:

A proof of identity (ID, passport)

A proof of residence (please contact the Maisel)
Société générale, BNP and LCL are the three main banks in Evry, click here to see their timetable:
Checks
Checks in France are often used, especially to have a mobile phone or rent an apartment.
Your credit card (about 30€ per year) and your checkbook (free) will arrive one week after your
account opening.
Your code number will be sent in your Maisel address, so be careful about your information.
Do not hesitate to give your mobile phone number to your bank in case they need some more
information. In case of loss or theft of the credit card or check book, you must immediately stop the
card or check book (“faire opposition”) by calling the phone number your bank gave you
Travelers Checks
Traveler’s checks are NOT easy to cash in France, because you must go to a bank and banking hours
are not very practical.
You can instead use an international credit card such as Visa or MasterCard. American Express is
recognized as well but is far less easily accepted.
As well, if your credit card has a pin code, almost all ATMs will allow you to withdraw Euros using
these credit cards. But be sure to check with your bank concerning the charges and exchange rate
applied when using the card in France in shops AND withdrawing money from ATMs.
Other spending
During your journey, you will spend a lot of money at your arrival:
Your rent (which depends on your Maisel room).
Note that you can benefit from the CAF which pays you a part of your rent.
Maisel membership cost (around 150€ non-refund)
Maisel deposit (arounf 450€)
House insurance (around 40€ for one year, please contact school life office)
Food
Dishes (5 €)
Public transport: count 70€/month for unlimited trips with the Imagin’r Card
Other: clothes, associations, school stationery…

mobile- Have a look on Internet for more detailed information.
There are three types of mobile subscriptions:

Prepaid card: you buy a Sim card and you top up your mobile phone when you don’t have
credits anymore. The inconvenient is that the companies don’t offer good deals.

Lock subscription: the best for those who want to call in France and also worldwide without
paying any extras charges. The company takes the money from your bank account every
month. (Need a bank account in France: go on the ). When you leave France, you call to stop
the subscription.

Normal subscription: if you know that you just call and send SMS/MMS in France, it’s the
best choice because it’s cheaper but if you call worldwide, the company is going to take
more money in your bank account than the subscription price. (need a bank account in
France)
What’s on the market?

Prepaid card:
If you want to call and send SMS in France and worldwide, the best offer is LEBARA MOBILE

“TABAC” (cigar store) to top up your mobile.
