FAQ for French applicants
Straight answers.
No. Under EU freedom of movement regulations, French citizens do not require a student visa to reside or study in Spain. After arriving in Barcelona, you simply register for an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), a standard administrative process our admissions team helps you complete.
Not at all. 100% of the curriculum, coursework, lectures, and exams are conducted in English. No prior Spanish knowledge is required for admission. To help you integrate into Spanish life and enhance your CV, C3S provides 1 year of complimentary Spanish language classes.
Yes. C3S offers Top-Up degree pathways. If you have completed a 2-year post-baccalaureate qualification in France (BTS or BUT 2), you can apply directly for final-year entry to complete an accredited Bachelor's degree in just 1 year.
C3S offers three intakes per calendar year: February 2027, May 2027, and October 2027. This gives you full flexibility to enrol without losing an entire academic year to rigid autumn-only deadlines.
