France, Marseille, Aix-en-Provence · The University of Aix-Marseille (Université d'Aix-Marseille) is one of the largest universities in France, as well as a famous center of science in Europe. More than 80,000 students study in Aix-Marseille, about 10,000 of whom are foreigners. Students from Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and other CIS countries can enter this university and receive a world-class European education. Aix-Marseille has programs in French and English, and the cost is affordable compared to other major European universities.
The history of the Université d’Aix-Marseille dates back to 1409. In 2012, several universities in the region merged into one European-level research center. Today, Aix-Marseille University includes more than 120 laboratories and offers 600 study programs. Campuses are located in Aix-en-Provence, Marseille, Arles and Aubagne.
The university is regularly included in the top 200 best universities in the world (QS, THE, ARWU), leading in positions in the areas of Medicine, Natural Sciences, Economics, Law, Engineering. Aix-Marseille collaborates with leading scientific centers in France – CNRS, INSERM, CEA and participates in joint European projects with Oxford, Bonn and Munich.
Aix-Marseille University is part of the CIVIS alliance – the European Citizens’ University. Exchange and research programs throughout Europe are available to students.
Admission to Aix-Marseille University for foreigners requires careful preparation and consideration of the nuances of French education. The education system in this country is different in that it pays special attention to the student’s profile as a whole, and not just grades. What is important is the candidate’s personal brand, motivation, academic history and potential.
Step by step process:
The student will have to decide on the program: License (bachelor’s degree), Master (master’s degree) or Doctorat (PhD).
And direction:
Many programs are available in English, especially master’s and research programs.
Documents are submitted electronically. Typically required:
Students from CIS countries apply through Campus France (Études en France). Students from the EU – directly through the university website.
Application deadlines are usually from December to March (master’s programs – until May).
After a positive review of the application, the university will send an offer of admission. After this, you can apply for a visa.
High GPA, good grades in core subjects.
For French-language programs: level not lower than B2 in DELF or DALF. For English-language programs: IELTS 6.5–7.0 or TOEFL iBT 90+.
