Why would you go to school in France? It will take a long time to become fluent enough to take your nursing education in French.

France is very hard to get registered with as a Nurse unless from EU. Many of the International nurses that posted, admittedly a few years ago, all commented they had to do courses to make up. As a International student you will find the fees very high and even if you get sorted with nursing there is no guarantee that you can stay and work

Yes, i understand that, thats why i would like to know where is the nearest school or universities in Compiegne where i would be staying. I would like to make up courses so that my units or credits would be recognize in france. I really would like to start first the learning of french language near compiegne so that i would be able to understand french language.Is it possible for me to enroll in a university wherein i would take up the French language for a year? Before starting my course..

You really need to look at the universities website and see if French language lessons are taught and what the fees will be

A year of French will not be enough. A university level French course would require previous French education. Why not just take nursing in a language you already understand? Taking it in France won't mean you could stay and work.

Start learning French now. Can your bf not enquire to requirements you need to be a nurse in the country?

Boyfriends come and boyfriends go. Why are you planning your life around a man that may not be around in the future.

It's a different story if you are married. Is the guy French?

I'm guessing, just like most other countries, you would have to study the language first and forget nursing at least for a while until you are proficient enough. I'm pretty sure there are French language courses around that area, if it's metropolitan enough. Courses start with beginner level up to advanced level.

The cheaper way to do that as of now, if you are still in the Philippines, is to enroll at Alliance Francaise I think.
