Université de Paris wishes to promote the international mobility of its students to strengthen their disciplinary and scientific skills and allow them to live a particularly enriching and formative international experience.
Study mobility in the United States and Canada takes place within the framework of the MICEFA (Mission Interuniversitaire de Coordination des Echanges Franco-Américains), a consortium bringing together most of the Ile-de-France universities and more than 80 universities in the United States and Canada.
The deadline for submitting pre-applications on the Faculty Moveon portal is set at November 30, 2021.

Language level required
Most universities require certification of a minimum level in the language in which the courses are taught. This is particularly the case of English-speaking universities which require certification in English such as the TOEFL Where IELTS (United States, Australia).
It is the responsibility of each student to take and pay for these tests. The results will be requested at the time of application. No delay will be granted.
Please note that the required scores are different depending on the MICEFA universities. For example, the minimum mark to apply is 80/120 (TOEFL).
