Presentation of the Lille branch
SILLAT Lyon is located at Faitout, a third place where associations committed to the values of hospitality, ecology, social justice, inclusivity, and conviviality come together.
We support exiled people, and more specifically those with international protection status: refugees, beneficiaries of subsidiary protection, asylum seekers, or beneficiaries of temporary protection.
- Whether they reside in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region and wish to resume their studies in France,
- or they reside elsewhere in France and wish to study in our region.
Would you like to be supported by our association in your project to return to higher education?
Our office hours are by appointment only.
To make an appointment, please fill out the first-contact form.
Our areas of support
- Support for returning to higher education: admissions and registration procedures (bachelor’s, master’s, university diploma bridge, BTS, etc.).
- Support provided throughout your studies, from registration, with post-registration support, to professional integration.
