Settled in France to pursue her studies in finance, Sharon Enobo shares her journey, her choice of school, and the support she received thanks to My French Degree.
Why did you choose France for your studies?
I came to France with the goal of developing my knowledge in finance and benefiting from an internationally recognized academic environment. For me, studying in France meant having a valued degree and real professional opportunities.
What were your main criteria when choosing a school?
I chose a school specialized in finance, Pigier, to stay consistent with my Bachelor’s degree in accounting obtained at ESSEC Douala. My objective was to strengthen my knowledge and deepen my skills in the financial field, within a program that is both solid and career-oriented.
How did you discover My French Degree?
I discovered My French Degree through France Prépa, which supports African students in their study projects in France. It was through this intermediary that I was connected with the team.
What convinced you to choose My French Degree?
What convinced me first was the personalized support and the mastery of admission procedures. The team is close to students and truly facilitates all administrative and academic processes: applications, school selection, timelines… I never felt alone throughout the process.
How would you rate the support you received?
The support was excellent. I was supported with:
- administrative follow-up
- academic guidance
- and choosing the right school according to my profile
Everything was clear, structured, and reassuring.
Why did you choose this particular school?
Pigier offered the program best suited to my profile and my career ambitions, with a good balance between theory and practice. This is exactly what I was looking for: a career-oriented program directly connected to the realities of the finance sector.
How was your integration in France?
My integration in France went very well thanks to:
- the support of the team that guided me
- and the multicultural environment of the school, which facilitates exchanges and interactions between students
I quickly felt comfortable, both in student life and daily life.
What differences did you notice compared to your home country’s education system?
The French education system stands out for:
- its academic rigor
- interactive teaching methods
- and a strong focus on practical work and group projects
This allowed me to develop not only my knowledge but also concrete professional skills.
Did you have any concerns before leaving?
Yes, I had concerns about:
- adapting to a new country,
- and discovering a different education system.
But the support from My French Degree helped to remove these concerns. At every step, I knew what to do, within what timeframe, and I could ask all my questions.
How would you summarize your experience with My French Degree?
I would say it is very positive. The team supported me at every step and made the process simple, smooth, and reassuring. Without this support, it would have been much more complex to manage from abroad.
