WHY CHOOSE BRASSART, THE SCHOOL OF CREATIVE PROFESSIONS?

BRASSART’s graphic design school is open to candidates from all academic backgrounds. Every year, BRASSART welcomes and selects students from a wide range of pathways: general and technological tracks, as well as vocational programs.

More than the specific diploma, BRASSART places great importance on your professional goals and your motivation to join a creative school 

There is no requirement to know how to draw in order to enter BRASSART. The foundation year in applied arts provides all the essential drawing basics. However, students must be willing to learn and motivated, as drawing is part of many creative pathways.

For programs in audiovisual production or Game Design / Video Games, no drawing level is required.

BRASSART provides access to the Adobe Creative Suite, which includes the main graphic design software: Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Premiere Pro, and more.

For the foundation year in applied arts, the school partners with a national brand to offer students a complete artistic toolkit at a preferential price, including markers, charcoal, acrylics, sketchbooks, and other essential materials.

Start with an online pre-application on our website. You will then receive an email with a link to our application platform, where you can submit your file, upload your supporting documents, and book your admissions interview via video call.

For French-taught programs, a minimum B2 level is required (DELF, TCF or equivalent). For English-taught programs, a certification such as IELTS or TOEFL is required. If unsure, your level may be assessed directly during the admissions interview.

For a long-term stay in France, you will need a VLS-TS student visa (Long-Stay Visa equivalent to a Residence Permit). The process varies depending on your nationality and country of residence. If your country requires a Campus France procedure, this must be completed first. Plan to submit your application at least 3 months before your departure.

BRASSART does not provide its own housing, but after admission you will receive a curated list of trusted student residences and platforms (including Studapart) through our partner Feel Français. Estimated monthly housing budget: €700 to €1,200 depending on the city.

Yes. A student visa allows you to work up to 964 hours per year (approximately 20 hours per week). Work-study contracts are also accessible to non-European students who hold a valid work-authorising residence permit and have completed at least one year of studies in France.

Tuition fees range from €8,000 to €12,000 per year, payable in 1 or 3 instalments. Scholarships may be available through government funding or local partnerships. Beyond tuition, plan for €900 to €1,400 per month for housing and living expenses. Our partner Feel Français can also assist you in opening a bank account upon your arrival in France.

Non-European students can access work-study contracts (alternance) provided they hold a residence permit authorising work and have completed at least one year of studies in France in order to sign an apprenticeship contract. It is important to note that a work-study placement is not guaranteed — it depends on the student's own job search. Each school has a dedicated Career Relations Department to support students throughout the process, offering CV workshops, career fairs, personalised coaching, and access to partner job listings.
