I think you need to try and ask this locally. Try this local forum : http://the-languedoc-page.com/forum It is used by Montpellier students. Peter

No you cannot get this automatically. You would need to get a job and a work visa. No university course guarantees residency.

What do you think if i were to complete high school in France as a student in the U.S. now?
What do you think if i were to complete high school in France as a student in the U.S. now?
I am currently a high school junior in the U.S. and i want to graduate in France by completing 11th and 12th grade. I want to be a catholic priest in the future and i thought this would be a good way to learn french. i have family over there. I am aware of the baccalaureat, but with hard study i think i would be fine. i appreciate your advice:) Any methods or things to keep in mind while in Paris? Thanks

tbh, it's really not a good idea. The french education systems bacalaureat is very hard, and as you won't have studied french geography, history or language, this would put you at a disadvantage for coming out with a good grade. As for being a priest... re isn't taught in french schools. The french education system is also more advanced than the american one so the equivalent of grade 11 in america is 3eme in france... so you may even need to go back a year first to catch up. And I will now add on here about the language barrier.... Unless you speak FLUENT french... as in from near birth, then you really don't stand much chance of coming out with a good grade. You would be better to study the International bacalaureat, in english, but maybe in an international school in france. As for paris... you would be better somewhere, where it's cheaper to live and english isn't a popular language if you want to learn french fluently. I know all this as I speak french also, I'm bi-lingual... and I have been to both english and french speaking schools. Last year I went to a 'lycee' to see if I wanted to do the bac, and after a few days, I was well out of my depth, because they study such a range of subjects in detail, and the french terms, even for me, were beyond me, as I hadn't studied in france for such a long time.. I didn't know the technical vocab.. ie in science lessons!!! Hope this helps.. don;t want to put a downer on it, but I think you would be better to graduate in english, either as an IB student, or in an american high school!... You can always wait 2 years, then move to france for a while and learn french! =D

No, unless she already has her Bachelors degree. In America you have to obtain a Bachelors degree first, with your few hundred hours of volunteer work, research, etc, then go for 4 more years of medical school, then the residency and further specialization if desired. There is no base for French in New York, only deep in Louisiana is French spoken at all here and there would not be any programs taught in the entire country in French.
