Opening a bank account
While it is not compulsory, we think that opening a French bank account upon arrival will be more convenient for you. Indeed, some rental contracts will require you to pay through direct debit transfer from a French bank account.
Burgundy Shool of Business has developed specific partnerships with two French banks : BNP Paribas and Société Générale. During the induction week, English speaking representatives from both institutions will be on our premises in order to help you open a bank account. Furthermore, as a student from Burgundy School of Business, both banks will offer you the possibility to register for housing insurance when opening your bank account. We remind you than in most cases, housing insurance is compulsory.
Should you wish more information prior arrival, we advise you to have a look at the following website:
