You must request your visa from the Campus France institution and the French consulate in your country of origin or residence. You will need to present your pre-registration certificate confirming that you are attending French classes for 1 year and the placement agreement signed by the family.

Here is how to request your pre-registration certificate:

Send us the following documents:

• A copy of your passport
• The completed pre-registration form

> Online by clicking Pre-register on the ""Package & Prices"" board

We will examine your application when we receive the documents (time required: 1 week unless we provide an immediate response if you come in to see us in person).

If your application is accepted, we will send you the pre-registration certificate by post (you should allow between 1 and 3 weeks for this according to the country concerned).
