International students

Degree level programme

You are a secondary-school-level student and you want to enrol at ISIT in order to graduate. You can choose between 2 programmes:

Management, Communication and Translation Programme

What you have to know before applying

Three languages are required to follow this programme:

  • You have to master both French and English whatever your first and second languages are. ISIT is not a language school, therefore foreign students who wish to study here are required to complete the same admission test as French students. The A language (the language to and from which the translation is undertaken) is French.
  • Your native language (other than English) will be recognised in your diploma at the end of your studies following a specific examination into French.
    For example, your first language is Russian, you will work with French and English throughout the curriculum but your diploma will mention French, English and Russian as a language combination.
  • Citizens from English-speaking countries must have a good command of another modern language that can be studied at the school such as Spanish, German, Italian, or Chinese.

How to apply

Please download your application form on the school website and send it to us before the relevant deadline. You must also register with Campusfrance.
Procedure available on http://www.campusfrance.org/fr/a-etudier/etudes04-1.htm

Admission tests

You can sit the admissions tests locally at your country’s French embassy or Alliance Française. Please contact the Studies Coordinator +33 (0)1 42 22 19 21 or secretariat.etudes@isit-paris.fr, one month ahead of the date of the tests so that ISIT can schedule the session.

Conference Interpreting Programme

Foreign students and students who have dual nationality account for most of our students. The only requirement to follow the programme is to have French and English in your language combination. 

Non degree-level programme

We welcome foreign students, Ph.D students, teachers and professionals willing to attend courses at ISIT. They can spend from a few weeks to a whole year at ISIT.

Foreign students whose universities do not have a partnership with ISIT
Application procedure:

  • Please send us a statement in French specifying the purpose and motivations of your request as well as how long you plan to study at ISIT.
  • You must also provide us with evidence of your qualifications and a letter of recommendation from one of your professors.
  • Deadline: we must receive your application 6 months before your arrival at the school.

Ph.D students, teachers, professionals
Application procedure:

  • Please send us a statement in French specifying the purpose and motivations of your application as well as how long you plan to study at ISIT at least 6 months prior to your expected date of arrival.

After a review of your application form and if you are accepted, you will receive a confirmation of acceptance which includes:

  • A summary of the conditions of your arrival at the school in duplicate
