You’ll be met at the railway station

http://www.groupe-esa.com/article475.html

Don’t worry, somebody will be waiting for you !

It is not so easy to arrive alone for the first time in a foreign city after a long journey, and find one’s bearings. Those ESA students who already studied abroad and have had such an experience have created the ’ESAternational’ Committee , whose purpose is to welcome international students.

One student member of ’ESAternational’ will welcome you at the station, take you to the accommodation booked for you by the International Relations Office, and help you draw up an inspection checklist of your room.

On your first day in Angers, the ’ESAternational’ student will take you to the university canteen, show you around the city and give you useful information on the various opportunities designed for students (transportation, banks, leisure activities…). He/she will introduce you to other French or international students.

The ’ESAternational’ student will take you to the International Relations Office at the ESA Group and introduce you to Marie-Hélène Mortureux, Assistant in charge of international students orientation. She will provide you with all useful information and advise you on the various practical and administrative procedures.

Let us acquaint you with your new environment :

On campus :

To make your cultural adjustment easier and help you get ready for your training course, Introductory crash courses are offered at the onset of the school year.
These sessions will help you understand the general organisation of studies, teaching methods and the specific programmes of the various courses offered.
These sessions will also give you the opportunity to enhance your language skills and knowledge of French culture.
