🇫🇷 Duolingo English Test for France — from South Korea
More than 200 French institutions accept the DET, primarily for English-taught programs at business schools and universities.
What France asks for
Scores run on the 10–160 scale; English-taught programs generally want 105–120.
Admission is not the same as the visa
For English-taught programs in France, English proof generally ties to the program's admission decision. French-taught programs require French-language proof separately. Check your specific program and current French student-visa rules.

English-taught programmes need Duolingo English Test/IELTS; Korean applicants overwhelmingly take the Duolingo English Test iBT, often through dedicated prep academies. At about $70 the DET is taken online from South Korea — no test-centre travel, and far cheaper than IELTS.
