We are thrilled to inform you that Sciences Po Lyon is proposing again its pre-university module for all incoming students, called Start’ Sciences Po Lyon. This 40-hour pre-university module is not compulsory, but is strongly recommended to maximize the students’ chances to succeed in their studies at Sciences Po Lyon. Those who choose to enroll will obtain 5 ECTS and a certificate if they pass. This module is free of charge for Erasmus + students and costs 300€ for outside Europe students.

The aim of the module is to help students familiarize with French academic culture, with the working methods and exam formats at Sciences Po Lyon, and to help consolidate their language and communication skills in French. Level groups will be formed on the basis of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.

The Fall semester module will take place during the first two weeks of September. There will be a placement test on the first day.

An email will be sent to all international students at the beginning of June. Students will have to complete the registration form before June 10th.

The Start’ Sciences Po Lyon module will also be offered for the 2nd semester and will take place during the first two weeks of January.
