Excelia extends a warm welcome to its international students by organising integration days at the beginning of the academic year in September/October.
This year we welcomed 450 international students during our integration events known as ‘Welcome Days’ which are organised each semester by Excelia's International Office. The purpose of these events is to help our new international students, whether on exchange or not, settle into their new environment.
Our Welcome Days include…
- a welcome beverage
- a presentation of the administrative procedures in France and the social security system
- a presentation of ADRIEM, an association for the development of international relations among students from around the world
- an opportunity to discover the school and the campus
We aim to provide our international students with valuable support to ensure they start their life at Excelia in the best possible way!
These events are the perfect opportunity to discover all the essential and practical information for a successful start to life in France.
These unmissable days are now offered on our 4 campuses in various formats, adapting to the environments of the four cities.
A fun start to student life
After the serious presentations... it’s time for some fun! Each year, the International Office invites our new international students to join in a specially designed integration event.
For the October Welcome Days, students had the opportunity of spending an afternoon on the Île de Ré participating in a team tournament.
The perfect occasion for students to get to know each other and enjoy some wonderful moments together!
