Angers, in the Loire Valley, is known for its medieval castle, gardens and student-friendly feel. The Loire Valley is considered one of the regions where the most 'standard' French is spoken, an advantage for learners.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Angers. University language centres in Angers and programs at schools such as ESSCA are among the options.
In Angers you can book courses of as little as one week. On an intensive program, one language level usually takes 6-8 weeks. A complete beginner typically needs 6-12 months to reach the B2-C1 level required for university.
The biggest factor in the price is the length of your booking: the weekly fee drops noticeably for bookings of 12 weeks or more. Winter is usually cheaper than the summer months. NGGlobal students can take advantage of the schools' seasonal discounts and offers.
At most language schools courses start every Monday, though complete beginner courses may have set start dates. For long programs that require a visa, we recommend applying at least 3 months ahead. Summer is the busiest period.
For long-term language study, you create an application file and attend an interview through Campus France Türkiye, then complete the visa application at the authorised centre. You will need the school's enrolment letter, proof of accommodation and proof of funds.
A Schengen visa for short courses does not allow work. On a long-stay student visa you can work within certain hour limits; always check the conditions before starting a job.
Homestay is the most common option in Angers, ideal for practising French at home too.
Living costs in Angers are much lower than in Paris, and rent and daily expenses suit a student budget.

Angers has a mild oceanic climate with gentle, rainy winters and warm summers.
Direct flights from Istanbul to Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) take about 3.5 hours; the high-speed train from Paris to Angers takes about 1.5 hours.
Because France uses daylight saving time, the time difference changes with the season: from late March to late October Angers is 1 hour behind Turkey, and in winter it is 2 hours behind.
