I chose a private university after 7 rejections on the Campus France application

Hello,
Please, I would like to speak to an advisor, thank you.

Hello @Aminata_Coulibaly! How can we assist you?

Hello madam, thank you for your response. I am a bit confused and not very confident about my result on the Campus France opinion for my interview with the embassy. My appointment is scheduled for the 3rd of November, I chose a private university after 7 rejections on the Campus France application. What should I do? Thank you again… :disappointed_face:

Certainly, @Aminata_Coulibaly, we understand your distress. However, having 7 rejections from public institutions on the Campus France application does not necessarily mean you received an unfavourable SCAC opinion. For example, in Congo, we have already known a student who had 7 rejections but eventually got their visa thanks to admission in a private institution: Congo-Brazzaville : Visa accordé, après 7 refus des universités publiques

You can try to find out your SCAC opinion as we explained here: https://ec.world-like-home.com/t/campus-france-tout-savoir-sur-la-procedure-pre-consulaire-je-suis-accepte/3062#mais-comment-connaitre-son-avis-scac-1

What were the reasons for your rejections given by the universities?

Lastly, if you think your Campus France interview did not go well, you can add an explanatory letter to try to make amends.

Thank you for your feedback. Some reasons for refusal were due to staffing, and the other five said I did not have the necessary prerequisites for the chosen programme. Finally, my appointment for the submission is scheduled for Tuesday, 11th July (in 2 days). I am trying to write an explanatory letter and I will show it to you shortly for your observations if you don’t mind. Thanks again…

Hello, I’m getting back to you regarding my result. I received a refusal for reason 4.
