No. French people are not as snobby as most people think. If you are polite and everything, you will be fine. Please understand that french customs are different and that they might find things rude that you don't. Take time to learn their customs. French people are a little easily offended. As long as you aren't really touchy.

You can find discrimination in France as in the rest of the world.
French univiersities are known for the inclussion of different etnics, therefore I would not be afraid.
