Are you a foreign student coming to study in Nanterre? Do you want to learn or improve your French during the academic year?
The FETE can give you the opportunity to do so on an actual 32-hectare university campus located just a stone's throw from La Défense, Europe's largest business district and one that also enjoys good public transport links.
A hub of both student and cultural life thanks to its swimming pool, green spaces and even theatre, the FETE offers classes in French for specific purposes, intensive French courses, academic qualifications and six-monthly support and improvement classes. The FETE is also a France Éducation International-approved TCF examination centre. Some of our students may be exempt from the TCF DAP.
