Welcome to France Label

Meeting all the criteria for this label, ENSTA has been awarded the highest rating (3 stars) for a period of 5 years. Created in 2019 by Campus France, the “Bienvenue en France” label aims to promote the quality of the welcome given to international students at higher education institutions, universities, and grandes écoles.

A mark of confidence, this label certifies the quality of the support systems available to international students who join the Institute:

  • Quality and accessibility of information
  • Quality and accessibility of support systems
  • Quality and accessibility of the educational offering and teaching support
  • Housing and quality of campus life
  • Quality of post-graduation support

It is a recognition of the welcome, support, and guidance services developed by the Institute for international students and the resources devoted to them.

Renewal of ENSTA accreditation for five years

On December 11, 2025, the certification committee convened by Campus France approved the renewal of ENSTA's “Bienvenue en France” certification at the highest level, 3 stars, for a period of 5 years.

Strengths of our program

These groups have specific needs, and the strengths of our program are as follows: support from the moment of admission (scholarships, information, visas, tutoring), an intensive 4- to 6-week French language course with a service provider for students admitted from non-French-speaking countries, a personalized welcome and pre-integration activities, accommodation offered in our two residences in Brest and Paris-Saclay for students admitted to MSc in Engineering programs, systematic administrative support upon arrival (banking, health insurance, CAF, residence permit, etc.).

Throughout the school year, a medical examination to detect and anticipate health, mental health, and disability issues and offer appropriate support measures, a student support system bringing together all of the Institute's services to take into account the overall situation of students.

Welcome to France!
