The Heart of European Excellence: Study in France with Global Walk Services Private Limited

France is far more than a world-class travel destination; it is a global powerhouse for higher education, research, and professional networking. From the historic lecture halls of the Sorbonne to the high-tech labs of École Polytechnique, France offers an unparalleled environment for ambitious students. At Global Walk Services Private Limited, we simplify the “Campus France” process, helping you transition smoothly into a society that values “Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité.”

Why Choose France in 2026?

France has recently introduced several student-centric policies that make it a premier choice for international talent, particularly from India.

  • Enhanced Post-Study Visa for Indian Students: A landmark agreement now allows Indian alumni who complete a Master’s degree in France to apply for a 5-year post-study work visa.
  • Elite “Grandes Écoles”: These highly selective institutions offer specialized training in Business and Engineering with strong industry ties, ensuring high employability.
  • English-Medium Expansion: There are now over 1,600 programs taught entirely in English, covering fields from Luxury Management to Aerospace Engineering.
  • Government Housing Aid (CAF): Unique to France, international students can apply for a monthly housing subsidy (CAF) that can refund up to 30-50% of their rent.
