The integration team looks forward to welcoming you. In order to prepare you for your stay in France we are including some practical information. Grenoble is a dynamic university city of 500,000 habitants in the south-east of France. It is within easy reach of Paris (3 hours by TGV high-speed train and less than an hour by plane), Switzerland and Italy. Grenoble is one of France's foremost international cities. Nestled in the French Alps, it was the host for the 1968 Winter Olympics. More than 60,000 students and 8,000 researchers along with companies such as Caterpillar, Hewlett-Packard, Rhône-Poulenc and Schneider Electric show that Grenoble is a booming city where technology and education play a major role. The weather in Grenoble varies enormously. We suggest you pack a broad selection of clothing from thick woolly pullovers to T-shirts and shorts. The winters can be icy cold and the height of summer is almost unbearably hot. And, whatever you do, do not forget your umbrella! For more information on Grenoble, including a map of the city, please visit these following websites: www.mappy.com, www.grenoble-isere.com, www.isere-tourisme.com Grenoble Ecole de Management is a public, not-for-profit organization which belongs to the Grenoble Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Grenoble Ecole de Management is one of the 22 French "Grandes Ecoles de Management" having a common history and academic co-operation with schools like Groupe ESC Bordeaux, Groupe ESC Lyon, Groupe ESC Nantes Atlantique, Groupe ESC Toulouse, Groupe ESC Normandie and Groupe HEC. As a member of France's Grandes Ecoles, Grenoble Ecole de Management stands out as an institution of higher education with enviable academic standards and a rigorous selection process. 1.1 ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL STUDENT SERVICES The International Student Services will help you with administrative issues and all kinds of questions concerning integration in Grenole and France.

Who should register with Campus France? 2. Who needs a visa? 3. What documents are required to obtain a visa? 4. What type of student visa can you be granted? 5. What does your visa entitle you to do? What does your visa mean? 1. Who should register with Campus France?
