Hello, I am enrolled in a private school. I made my application and received a refusal for reason 2. I already had an account here in my local bank, and my father deposited 7 million francs into my account. It was with my bank that I made the payment of 615 euros. I am also staying for free at my aunt’s house. I explained to a friend, and he suggested Studely, which would really help justify the resources for my living expenses abroad. I would like to know if this could indeed solve my problem with reason 2. Also, for my free accommodation: the documents I have are the accommodation certificate, her identity card, her property tax (tax notice) since she is the owner, and her phone bill. I would like to know if everything is in order?

Hello, I am enrolled in a private school and I applied for a visa but was refused for reason 2. I already had an account in my name and my father deposited 7 million francs into the account. I made a statement of 615 euros. I am staying for free at my aunt’s house. For my next application, I heard about Studely, which is a fairly reliable organisation to justify subsistence resources abroad. I would like to know if it will still be reliable? I wouldn’t want to get the same refusal for the same reason. Also, for the free accommodation, my aunt gave me the following documents: a certificate of accommodation, her ID, her property tax (tax notice) since she is the owner, and her phone bill. I would like to know if the documents for accommodation proof are good?

I would like to know if it will be sufficient to justify the resources? I don’t want to receive the same refusal for the same reason.

Hello 12naomi
Overall, your file is well composed
The current question is:
How much does your tuition cost and how do you plan to pay for it?
My father is the financier for paying my tuition when I went to Studely (Ivory Coast). They informed me that it is the means of subsistence that matter; this is what the consulate looks at the most. As for the tuition, it is between the student and the school.
The reason 2 means that you did not provide clear enough elements or documents to prove that you have the necessary resources for your studies in France. First, you need to know the necessary amount you need for your first year of study in France. Your guarantor must be solvent, meaning they must be able to pay your rent in France if needed while maintaining a comfortable situation. You must provide evidence proving the origin of this amount. The best option is to make an AVI (Attestation de Virement Irrévocable) because in this case, you will no longer have to prove the source of the funds, and it is more reliable. I know the company Studely well; they did the AVI for my little brother last year, and he got his visa, they are reliable. I assume you have paid a deposit on the tuition since you were admitted to a private institution.
Alright, it’s the advice from Studely that I will follow for my next application. I have paid the deposit of 2000 euros for my tuition fees, which cost 7790 euros. Now, as I am in the private sector, I asked Studely there, and they told me that it’s the means of subsistence that matter for the consulate. The tuition fees are between me and the school, is that correct?
Yes, yes. You just need to provide the 615 euros monthly. They will mention it on the Avi. The embassy does not require proof for tuition. Those who have been admitted to public institutions pay their tuition once they arrive in France. Trust Studely. You will get your visa.
Hello @anonyme41
they told me it’s the means of subsistence that matter for the consulate, the tuition fees are between me and the school, is that correct?
It may happen that by chance, the consulate approves the visa without dwelling on the tuition fees.
In other cases, there have been instances of students receiving a refusal with reason 5 because they did not justify how they would pay the tuition fees.
To be realistic, it would be preferable to justify the funding of your tuition fees.
You have 2 options in front of you:
- In addition to the AVI from STUDELY, either you set up a blocked account for the tuition fees,
- Or you set up a blocked account for the means of subsistence with, in addition to that, a sponsorship
Good luck!
Alright, understood, I have already submitted my application with the Studely advice of 615 euros per month, plus I have free accommodation, my tuition as soon as I was planning to pay my tuition directly on site.
Hello, I finally managed to get the visa:slightly_smiling_face:
