I'm going through the hoops of trying to apply to do a Master's in France. This is the most brain draining, progress impeding task I have ever encountered. I can't even get a person to respond.
Has anyone done something like this that would like to give me some pointers? |

| As is my understanding from second hand experiences the French higher education system is notoriously difficult, with teachers intentionally making the courses hard leading to an exceptionally high rate for failing students. Apparently the application process is proving to be similar for you. unfortunately this isn't constructive for resolving the problem directly, but it might be worthwhile considering a different option if you have any open to you for the path you want to take. if there are comparable alternatives in your field many countries have far more accessible and nurturing systems, though if it is unparalleled i sympathise and wish you luck, any such application process is exhausting and stressful, especially when it concerns your future |

yes, but graham went as part of an exchange program from his university here, so he didn't have to deal with the admin side when apply to UdeLyon |

Good point. I didn't even think it would be that different.
I want to do an exchange so bad, but I'm such a wuss. |

from my understanding, tuition fees for international students in any country are insane, hence me not being able to study outside of the country. i think when i was looking into the UK, it was like £10 000 for one year. could be wrong though. |

| ... i have also heard first hand accounts that this is an intense endeavor. If you have a strong command of the french language then, i'd say go for it! |
