   How it compares

   Among France’s 298 universities and higher education institutions, this school sits in a small group of four écoles normales supérieures, which makes it more specific than a standard university choice. Its public status and division into Arts and Sciences will appeal to applicants who want a focused academic environment in Lyon rather than a broad multi-faculty university.
