France President Rewards Indian Students New French Learning Classes

French President Emmanuel Macron announces the launch of 'Classes Internationales', an exceptional French learning programme for Indian students. 

With this programme, scholars can learn French for a year in France before pursuing the degree of their choice. The classesinternationales.org is hoisting the application, and candidates can register by 31st March 2024. 

The initiative reflects in the joint statement endorsed by President Macron and Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 26th January, as said by the embassy. 

Classes Internationale Programme for Indian Students

The programme is designed to help India's high school graduates benefit from France's educational offerings without being limited to English-taught programmes. With the help of this programme, a student can get admission into French-taught undergraduate programmes after completing a foundational year of language training at the institute. Even though a learner is a complete beginner, they can still access France's rich, diverse, and renowned educational offerings through this programme, which makes it exciting.

Macron, during his tour of Amber Fort, also met with Indian students from the Alliance Française de Jaipur and the French departments of Delhi University and Jawaharlal Nehru University. He also connected and interacted with alumni back from France after graduation.

Final Word
