Introduction to the standards and requirements of economic guarantee for studying abroad in France

Foreign universities generally require students to issue financial guarantees when processing their applications for studying abroad, proving that they have enough funds to maintain their normal study and life abroad. Those who have no proof of financial guarantee and no funding from the school will generally not be admitted to the school. The guarantor must be the relatives and friends of the guarantor who has settled abroad, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, has a fixed occupation and has certain economic strength. Here is a detailed introduction to the relevant provisions of various countries on financial guarantee for studying abroad at their own expense.

United States of America

In the United States, whenever a relative or friend acts as a guarantor, the United States will require the guarantor to issue a letter of economic guarantee from the US Immigration Bureau, that is, I- 134 form and some accompanying documents, such as bank deposit certificate, copy of tax return, employer's confirmation letter, annual income, etc. If the guarantor is in the United States, he can go to the nearest immigration office to get the I- 134 form; If you live outside the United States, you can get this form at the local American embassy or consulate. After obtaining the form, the guarantor should fill it out truthfully, attach the necessary additional documents and take the oath according to local legal procedures. Finally, the guarantor will send the original sworn I- 134 form and the attached documents to the guarantor, and the guarantor will apply for a passport and visa accordingly.

France

Since higher education in France is free, international students do not have to pay tuition fees, but they must have an economic guarantor to pay their living expenses in France. The guarantor may be a French national or a foreigner, but he must conduct business in France. The guarantor must provide bank certification, which mainly proves that he has frozen funds for the principal for 12 months, with a minimum of 2,300 francs per month, that is, 27,600 francs. In addition, the guarantor also needs to provide the original and photocopy of the residence guarantee certificate certified by the provincial government or the police station. If the guarantor is not a French national, a copy of his residence permit in France is required.
