Dalili

Hey IH 👋

I'm Aymane, and I just launched Dalili (dalili.study) —

a free resource for international students from Morocco,

Algeria, Tunisia, Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire and Cameroon

who want to study in France.

THE PROBLEM

Every year, thousands of students face the exact same issues:

- Visa refused because of missing documents

- Housing lost because they applied too late

- CAF (housing aid) missed because nobody told them the deadline

- Bank account impossible to open without a fixed address

No clear guide existed in French for students from our countries.

The official resources assume you already know the system.

WHAT I BUILT

49 free guides verified on official sources (Campus France,

CAF.fr, Ameli.fr, French consulates)

14 city guides with real budgets — not the official numbers

14 university guides

3 interactive tools:

→ Budget simulator (calculates your real monthly budget

+ CAF aid automatically)

→ Campus France calendar (personalized month-by-month

timeline by country and intake)

→ City comparator (compare 14 cities on 5 criteria)

Each tool sends a personalized PDF by email.

KEY INSIGHT

The French consulate requires you to prove 615€/month

of resources to get a student visa. But with CAF housing

aid, student restaurant (3.30€/meal), and the free

Complémentaire Santé Solidaire health coverage —

you can actually live on 370-420€/month in most cities.

Nobody explains this gap between what you need to PROVE

and what you actually SPEND.
