If your application is retained for interview and if the interview is successful you will then be offered a place in the turbulence masters program conditional on your payment of the first instalment of the tuition fees. Upon receipt of this payment, you will then be sent the final and formal acceptance letter. At this stage, you will need a visa if you are a non-EU student.

Irrespective of whether you applied through the “Etudes en France Online Platform” or not, you will need (as a non-EU student) to follow the procedure on this website https://france-visas.gouv.fr/  

Here is some important advice for your student visa application. You should start as early as possible as visa applications take several weeks. The first step is to contact the nearest  Campus France Office  and then start the visa application procedure via “Études en France” platform. You should apply for a « VLS-TS étudiant», a long-stay visa valid as a residence permit (see here  for more information)
