I have just received a student visa for UK, for 4 years. Can I travel with this visa to France?
I planned to travel to the UK for studies via Paris, since it was much cheaper for me. So I am wondering whether I could stay some days there, in France in order to visit my relatives.

Yes. Once you're in the European Union you can travel throughout with your passport. I'm not sure what the time limit is for needing a Visa in France though. Just make sure you don't go over that. Have an awesome time!

You can't do this. Would need a transit visa. More on uk students - http://www.smartukstudent.com

A student visa for the UK, not a member of the Schengen agreement concerning travel, does not constitute a right to stay in France. It would waive a transit visa requirement, but only for the direct way to reach the final destination, for example if your flight arrives at Charles de Gaulle Airport, Paris and your connection flight departs at Orly Airport, Paris. If you plan to stay in France for some days you enter the Schengen area and, unless your visa requirement is waived, you must apply for a short-stay visa in France. The visa requirement is waived for citizens of the following non-european countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Israel, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Nicaragua, New Zealand, Panama, Paraguay, Singapore, South Korea, United States, Uruguay, Venezuela.
