Back to school at Inalco
This page has been translated automatically.
To get your university year off to a good start and quickly become self-sufficient, take part in the back-to-school meetings and stands organized from September 9 to 20, 2024 as part of Back-to-School Days. They're an opportunity to familiarize yourself with your new world, and a good way to make a smooth transition from vacation to the start of classes.
Welcome to Inalco!
A true discovery stage, back-to-school days are a moment not to be neglected, as they are the first opportunity to learn a little more about what's expected of you and what's in store for you: how your year will unfold, how classes are organized, meeting the teachers, the options available, how the premises are organized, opening your digital account, accessing the library, administrative services, community life, etc.
The back-to-school days are specially dedicated to welcoming and informing first-time L1 students, for whom they are compulsory, but they are just as important for L2 and L3 students who are new to a stream or course, as for new Master's students. We invite you to consult the program of meetings, workshops and courses organized according to your enrolment level.
Happy academic year!
The content of this web page is subject to frequent modification. We recommend that you consult it regularly to ensure that the information is up to date.

The essentials
Here you'll find all the practical information you need to find your way around Inalco.
Inalco continues to support your studies with access to a wide range of distance learning tools via the Moodle platform. Don't forget to activate your digital account.
For a year now, the Student Success and Life Department has been running a mentoring program. The aim of this program is to support students throughout their university career, by setting up stands and offices staffed by student mentors.
Your studies
University calendar, timetable, exams, regulations and student charters, diploma collection, tuition fees, student card reissue...
Tutoring is a peer support system set up by the R.E.V.E. department to promote student success: it is open to students in the Initiation or DLC 1 diploma, Licence 1, Licence 2, Licence 3.
Inalco offers all students, whatever their level of training, the opportunity to showcase their commitment, whatever it may be (associative, elective, voluntary, civic, etc.).
Campus life
Make your voice heard!
Campus life, study conditions, training opportunities, the future of Inalco...
Inalco brings together a hundred languages, as well as cultures and civilizations that interact and evolve together. The cultural program put on by our students, teachers and partners takes you on a journey each week, and asks you questions about our society.
Inalco's cultural life is punctuated by highlights that recur every year.
Inalco is home to more than twenty student associations, which play a key role in the life and activities of the school: throughout the year, they offer weekly activities, cultural days, or one-off events and stands (food sales, tombola, collections, etc.) in the 2nd floor hall!
Discover Inalco's exciting and varied range of sports activities for students, designed to enrich your university life and promote your physical and mental well-being!
The equality mission is helping to make Inalco more inclusive, to reject all forms of violence and discrimination, and to welcome and listen.
Practical life
As part of our commitment to the success and well-being of our students, Inalco offers a variety of social aids and scholarships designed to support those who need it most.
The RSE enables certain students, particularly those who are salaried, in Civic Service, or those with a specific status or particular constraints, to benefit from accommodations in the course of their studies.
The role of the doctors, nurses and psychologists is to listen to you and answer all your questions, to inform you with clear documentation on health, hygiene, diet and contraception, and to advise you on your pace of life to avoid overtiredness or periods of stress as exams approach.
Eating couldn't be easier: there are several food service outlets close to the buildings on rue des Grands Moulins and rue de Lille. Managed by the CROUS de Paris, this offer gives you access to a balanced diet at lower cost.
When it comes to finding accommodation in Paris, there are several options available to students: from studio rentals to university residences and shared accommodation, there are many choices to choose from.
