High school Sponsorship

Hello! I am currently a student in France and was born here, and I'm now in Highschool (Science) and I hope to become an airline pilot. I will not tell you about my knowledge on A320 / B737..
I'm also originally Turkish, and know that Turkish Airlines have an academy, they want 4 years University degree so it's not for me as I want to applicate after a Highschool. (I know Turkish F/O in Sunexpress for example that doesn't have University degree).
In a year I'll finish high school, and I need to find me a flight school, so I have some questions.

Question 1: As someone from France, there is just ENAC which is very selective, 3000 application all year, and at the end, 20 graduated.. And we have to study "Prepa", which is 2 year after highschool and is really most diffiicult to access then University.. There is also Air Ffrance Cadet but it's closed at the moment, and some flying school but very expansive without any help for fianncement unfortunately..
So, I search a formation with sponsorship in Europe, like CTC I think, but I don't know if a flying school will finance through the sponsorship our formation, and then and I'll repay the training when I begin to work as an FO in an airline, (that's exactly what i search).
Because being a student, and my parents are not directly able to pay a training, (which costs around 80.000-100.000€ with Type Rating !) I really do not know what to do.
Is there a sponsorship flying school, I searched but I just found CTC, Stella and I'm not exactly sure of their conditions, I contacted them but I don't have an answer yet, so maybe should I take a loan from the bank ? Is it possible ?

And my last question, if I come to a country for training,(at only 18) do I have to lease a house in myself, (work+training) or do a school help us ?

Waiting your answers, thanks !

The most common way to raise the required funds it to get a bank loan, but you'd need to secure it against a property. If your parents own their house then that could be an option for you. No flight schools that I know of will sponsor you through the training on the condition that you repay them when you get a job with an airline. With some cadet programmes the sponsoring airline offers financial assistance in various forms, but such programmes are very competitive.

In terms of accommodation there is no one specific answer. Each flight school is different so you'll need to contact them to find out exactly what's included in the package.

Hope it's helpful.

Thanks for the answer !
Yes, I also think the same, I'll try to do that, and I'll inform about that here.
For cadet, I know CTC Wings with easyJet for example, but it's also very selective..
Thanks again !
