A certified quality welcome

Bienvenue en France / "Welcome to France"

Studying at a university with the "Bienvenue en France" label means that you will be welcomed in the best possible conditions and supported throughout your stay to ensure your mobility is a success!

What is the "Bienvenue en France" label?

The "Bienvenue en France" label was created to allow French higher education institutions to highlight their ability to welcome new international students. It is awarded by Campus France for a period of 4 years and validated by an independent commission.

For institutions, the "Bienvenue en France" label is a fundamental part of their quality approach. It enables them to measure, describe and promote the facilities and initiatives that welcome and benefit international students.

The UPJV "Bienvenue en France" reception and support systems

For several years, the UPJV has been developing a culture of welcoming and supporting international students. This quality approach has enabled the UPJV to obtain the "Bienvenue en France" label in 2020, 2 stars level (out of 3), for a period of 4 years.

This label rewards the implementation of several reception and support measures to facilitate the arrival, settlement and integration of international newcomers:

• The creation of a "Bienvenue en France Reception Desk" to facilitate the administrative procedures to be carried out on arrival (visa validation, social security registration, housing assistance application, opening a bank account, etc.)
• The development of a mentoring programme by a French student, called the Buddy System
• The implementation of personalised support to facilitate the integration of international students
• Assistance with orientation and finding accommodation through our partnership with CROUS Amiens-Picardie
• Facilitation of meetings and exchanges between international students on individual mobility and UPJV students
• The offer of a free of charge course in French as a Foreign Language (FLE)
