Admission via Campus France; study is a weak PR route — a switch to work is needed
Study in France on an RF passport runs through Campus France / Études en France, then a VLS-TS étudiant visa and validation in France. From 1 Aug 2026 proof of funds is €877.50/month (€10,530/year). An RF Attestat can apply directly to Licence 1 (DAP). Embassy of France in Russia 2026/27 master scholarships for RF students — €860/month plus visa/Campus France benefits (preferential). Study alone is a weak PR route; after graduation a work/talent status is usually needed. France allows multiple nationality.
