How hard is it to get a work/or student visa in France?
Id like to live in France but Im worried about being granted a Visa. Also, I would like to apply to a graduate school but Im not fully fluent in French... Does anyone know of English speaking universities in France or all of Europe (NOT ENGLAND). ? I am looking for a P.hD program in Psychology. Thanks for your help.

Your chances of getting a work visa in the EU are practically non existent. The new laws since the Schengen treaty has been signed seriously restrict working immigration into Europe even for qualified people unless that have degrees in extremely rare subjects or very special skills, and are sponsored by an organisation already in Europe on the grounds that no European can fill the vacancy offered adequately. A student visa is easier to obtain. Look at these websites for openings in Europe: http://www.kent.ac.uk/careers/postgradmenu.htm#Europe http://transitionsabroad.com/listings/study/undergraduate/index.shtml#study_abroad_programs and for Germany: http://www.study-in-germany.de/ In France there is the American University in Paris where courses are in English, but it is pricey. Some French universities do run courses in English and accept foreign students for Ph.D research who are not very fluent in French, but Psychology is not a programme which is run in English. Your best course is to do some research on the official website for Foreign students aspiring to study in France: http://usa.campusfrance.org/en/1.html
