Volta offers a French Language Course at a single level: Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française (DELF) B2 level to College students. The Course involves 60 hours of teaching from mid November until late April arranged in 30 sessions of 2 hours each (two sessions per week). A poster of the Course can be downloaded here, a Course flyer can be downloaded here.

France is home to a wealth of Universities and 'Schools' (special Universties distinctive of the French educational system) and is a popular destination for Erasmus placements. The level of the French Course at Volta, therefore, is set at the standard requirement set by French Universities for admission of foreign students under the Erasmus scheme or equivalent. Students interested in the French Course are advised to take an online entrance test. The one currently used by Volta is a brief and free French Placement Test test offered by Oxford University that provides reliable and useful information about a student's entry level.

Every student at Volta is expected to study a language and currently has a choice of English (3 levels), French (1 level) and German (1 level). Enrolment fee for all Language Courses at Volta for 2017/18 is expected to be € 100 per Course.
