Most of the Museums, Theaters, and Cinemas are offering discounted tickets for students. Besides, you can have the privilege to enjoy a free entry to French National Museum. You can get into libraries and enjoy traveling at lesser prices. Urban-Transit and university restaurants are the best part to avail discounts.
Accommodation
Finding an economical place to live in a foreign state while studying is a really hard task to do.
But with the social assistance that is specially provided to the students, you can get nice accommodation at a reasonable price. The 3 types of accommodation assistance offered by the CAF in France are:
- Allocation de Logement Sociale (social housing assistance)
- Aide Personnalisée au Logement (personal accommodation assistance)
- Allocation de Logement Familial (family accommodation assistance)
They assist the foreign students to find a place with affordable rent and satisfactory services. Do you know the OFII known as the French Office of Immigration and Integration offers accommodation support with the discount of 30% to 40% on the rent? Pretty amazing huh!
Healthcare support
Another benefit of studying in France is its amazing healthcare assistance. The Service Universitaire de Médecine Préventive et de Promotion de la Santé, for your convenience you can name it “SUMPPS” is an official and most efficient health department built in each and every institute for the student aid. You can consult the doctor, and have a good checkup, without worrying about paying any fees. Some advanced facilities such as screening, vaccinations, nutritional and psychological consulting are also offered at an instant to all the students.
