Work rules in France
Employment access depends on nationality and the conditions attached to the student's immigration status. Confirm the current permission and limits before accepting work, and keep a study budget that does not depend on immediate earnings.
Use institutional career support
Ask universities about internships, career services, employer partnerships and graduate outcomes for your field.
Plan beyond graduation
Graduate residence and employment routes are separate from admission. Start checking them well before student status ends.
