Health Care and Health Insurance

Make sure to be informed on how the French healthcare system works. In order to obtain your residence permit (“Carte de Séjour”), you must produce proof that you are either covered by the French Social Security system or that you have arranged for individual medical coverage. This is called “couverture sociale”. The documentation required is a certificate from the insurance company which sets forth: – the company‘s name and the fact it is an insurance company (“raison sociale”) – your name and civil status (“état civil”) – the duration of the insurance policy – the risks covered (your insurance policy must cover at least doctor and hospital bills). 

All students are required to carry their own health care insurance and accident insurance. Coverage is required from the date of departure from their country of residence until their return there. The coverage must meet the requirements established by the Admissions office, which will be pleased to help you choose the best type of insurance for your needs. The University cannot assume responsibility for students who fail to take out adequate medical insurance. 

Cost of Living

The Paris Study Center does not have a student residence. However, SIU Paris has partnerships with two housing agencies:  

  • LES ESTUDINES 

  • ATOME 

Other Tips

It is time to pack and prepare for the trip!

A packing list can help you remember to bring everything you need. Don’t forget to add things to help you feel at home. If your apartment has a kitchen, consider coordinating certain items with roommates to avoid crowding the kitchen with duplicate dishes and appliances. 

You can find more information in our Student Handbook.
