The French A1 — Gateway to Canada CRS Bonus & France Study Abroad (French A1) exam fee in India is ₹6,000–8,000 (exam); EEC coaching ₹7,500 (Online Live ONLY). The test is conducted by Alliance Française (DELF/DALF), CCI Paris (TEF), France Éducation International (TCF). Results arrive in 4–8 weeks (DELF/DALF); 3–4 weeks (TEF/TCF) and scores stay valid for Lifetime (DELF/DALF); 2 years (TEF/TCF for immigration). Out of EEC Surat, the fee is most commonly paid by families on the Canada PR corridor — exam fee is collected directly by Alliance Française (DELF/DALF), CCI Paris (TEF), France Éducation International (TCF); EEC handles only the registration paperwork, slot selection and pre-test counselling at no extra charge.

French A1 has 4 sections — Listening, Reading, Writing, Speaking — with a total duration of 60–100 hours to achieve A1 (DELF exam: ~1 hour 20 min) and a DELF: 0–100 (50 to pass) | TEF/TCF: NCLC levels for Canada scale. The EEC Surat batches structure section drills around the dominant Surat cohort (textile-trade owners and diamond-industry families fund overseas study via SME-secured loans, and the catchment skews heavily toward Canada PR and Australia skilled-migration); the speaking / writing weightage in particular is calibrated to a Canada CRS Bonus (NCLC 5+)-bound band of Up to 50 ADDITIONAL CRS points (bilingual bonus), since that is the majority outbound corridor here.

Typical French A1 requirements: Canada CRS Bonus (NCLC 5+): Up to 50 ADDITIONAL CRS points (bilingual bonus), Quebec PEQ: NCLC 7 in oral (French is primary selection factor), France Study (English programs): No French needed (40% Master's in English), France Study (French programs): DELF B2 / TCF B2. The realistic Surat target depends on the corridor — most Surat French A1 aspirants target Canada CRS Bonus (NCLC 5+) (Up to 50 ADDITIONAL CRS points (bilingual bonus)) — typical of a city where textile-trade owners and diamond-industry families fund overseas study via SME-secured loans, and the catchment skews heavily toward Canada PR and Australia skilled-migration. EEC Surat counsellors run a free profile review for students from Adajan, Vesu, Citylight and the wider Surat district to fix the right target band, then build a per-section study plan around it. Aiming a half-band higher than the minimum is the standard EEC advice for Canada CRS Bonus (NCLC 5+)-bound files.

French A1 scores stay valid for Lifetime (DELF/DALF); 2 years (TEF/TCF for immigration) from the test date, with results in 4–8 weeks (DELF/DALF); 3–4 weeks (TEF/TCF). For Surat students this matters because the Canada PR application cycle has fixed intake windows — book the test at least 4–5 months before the application deadline to avoid expiry mid-process. EEC Surat counsellors map the test date to your target intake (most Surat files target the September / January intake) so the result does not lapse during the visa-lodge stage.
