ERASMUS EXCHANGE PROGRAM
Les ECTS
The courses taught by the host institution are part of the European Credits Transfer System (ECTS). ECTS aims to facilitate the academic recognition of studies abroad. The credit is proportional to the volume of work to be provided by the student and makes it possible to measure the level of studies attained.
– To validate your Erasmus semester, you need 30 ECTS. Here are the courses offered at the CMDL and the corresponding ECTS:
| Classes | hours/week | hours/semester | ETCS |

Visa
If you are a student who is a national of a country within the European Economic Area, no visa is required.
If you are a national of a non-European country, you must apply for a student visa several weeks before your arrival in France at the French consulate or through the CEF (Études en France) – France Education procedure, depending on your country.
A long-stay D visa is mandatory for any stay exceeding 3 months. It allows you to obtain a student residence permit upon your arrival in France.
