Country-level guidance for France

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.

Applying from Costa Rica

At about $70 the DET is taken online from Costa Rica — no test-centre travel, and far cheaper than IELTS. English-taught programmes need Duolingo English Test/IELTS; Spanish-taught destinations generally do not.
