Student loans
Many banks offer deals tailored to the needs of students. Check with your bank to find out how you can benefit from a student loan* at an attractive rate.
A state-guaranteed student loan may be an option to consider. Unlike other loans, this is open to all students, with no means test and no need for a parental or third-party guarantee.
To be eligible, all you need to do is be enrolled at a higher education establishment in France, be under 28 years of age, and be a French national or a national of an EU or EEA member state with regular residence in France for at least 2 years. The maximum loan amount is €20,000, with a minimum repayment period of 2 years. For more information, visit the government website by clicking on the link above.
*Before taking out a loan, make sure you have read and understood all the repayment terms and conditions.
