Every year, the Mois de l'International is back! This year, for the first time, the International Student Welcome Office is taking part in this major event organized by the International Relations Office offering a tailor-made program for international students new to amU!
The very essence of the International Students Office is to offer international students newly enrolled at amU support with administrative formalities, and to offer friendly integration activities. The program proposed for this year's Mois de l'International is built around these objectives.
Assistance with administrative formalities
As every year, the DRI is setting up welcome desks on the Aix-Schuman and Marseille Saint-Charles campuses. This flagship event at the start of the new academic year gives international students the opportunity to benefit from specific assistance with the administrative formalities they need to complete to settle in France.
