Selecting and applying for a scholarship

The French government take care of gifted students or those who have low incomes, so that they are not left without the allowances, rewards and social benefits at their disposal. Therefore, there is a fairly long list of various French scholarships that virtually any student could apply for.

Applications for scholarships are considered by a competent commission, so try to prepare well, collect the necessary documents, check them thoroughly and write a good motivation letter  to increase the chances of being granted allowances. 

Of course, no one can guarantee a positive answer to your request before the official decision is made by the commission. Be wary of anyone who claims the contrary. The only thing you can do is to trust professionals to check your documents and that your thoughts have been laid out coherently.
