French higher education institutions are among the most respected and prestigious in the world
For today’s mobile and globalized Filipino youth, France is an attractive destination for studying abroad due to its rich culture and history, while also being a modern, innovative, and sustainable country
It is home to a high concentration of internationally-ranked institutions, with many of them having English as the language of instruction across various disciplines and academic levels.
Public investments and subsidies (for rent, meals, transportation, healthcare) allow a more reasonable cost of living for international students as compared to other attractive destinations. Each year, the Embassy of France to the Philippines launches a call for scholarships, the PhilFrance Scholarships program. Since its introduction in 2016, the program has sent over 50 Filipino students and researchers to pursue their studies in France.
