I want to be a foreign exchange student in France for summer 2012?
Any good programs out there? I look on google but I get overwhelmed and I don't know which program to pick. I want to experience the language, and mostly the culture and be around people that do fun stuff like party and visit places. I'm going to be 18 in June next year. Should I just make my own trip there? I just don't know anything about the country and want to go with a program first. Any help?

Your school's French teacher should be able to set you up with this. I wouldn't try to do it all on your own. Talk to the foreign language teacher(s) at your school.

Yes, long stay national visa (type D) are in general issued for multiple-entries, unless the visa holder is required to apply for a residence permit (Carte de sejour temporaire) immediately after arrival in France. One key-point of the Schengen agreement is that holders of a long-stay visa or a residence permit issued by one Schengen country can freely travel to the other Schengen countries for up to 90 days per semester..

If my boyfriend is student in France, and I buy him a Eurailpass before I get there, is he allowed to use it?
If my boyfriend is student in France, and I buy him a Eurailpass before I get there, is he allowed to use it?
My bf will only be in France for 6mo. I read that residents of the EU can't use the pass and that they check your passport before you can use it. He's not exactly a resident, if they see a French visa in his passport is it still acceptable for him to use it?

if he is traveling with you, and you are the person holding the tickets, the person asking for the tickets are not reviewing all the passports, unless you are suspicious. they ask how many traveling and take a look at the person and that about it. good luck..:>

what a nice grillfriend you are

According to the Eurail FAQ ( http://eurail.lwb-online.info/index.php?view=cms_752 ) on the official website ( http://www.eurail.com ), the ticket is not valid for anybody who "has lived" in Europe for more than 6 months. So, in the case of your boyfriend who "plans" to stay in Europe for 6 months, he should be able to buy and use it. On the other hand, if he could reasonably claim that he is an European resident (for 6 months or more), he could take advantage of other offers, namely Interrail ( http://www.interrailnet.com/ ) and Eurodomino ( http://www.eurodomino.co.uk/ ) which are normally more advantageous than Eurail. Among others, they allow selection of a limited number of countries (even a single one, but never the country of residence), flexible days (e.g., 3 - 8 days within a month for Eurodomino) and second class travel, which both may contribute to significant savings. So, I would recommend you to enquire about the offers for European residents first and only select Eurail if Interrail and Eurodomino do not apply.

How do I obtain a student visa for France?
How do I obtain a student visa for France?
I am applying to study in France for one semester and I am trying to submit a visa application through the LA consulate of the french embassy and I am having trouble figuring out some details (address to send application materials, getting lodging certificate, "financial guarantee" details, etc.) Any input from anyone with experience in this application process would be greatly appreciated, especially since the consulate will not take visa inquiries over the phone and i don not live anywhere near LA. Thank you!

The embassador has all the information you need.Call them 5 times a day if you need to.It's their job.It is not pleasant,been there.The American embassy in Frankfurt was the same way,but I think they just want to see how bad you want the visa and study in France.Don't worry,you will get it.There are just dicks.
