Tuition Fees and Financial Aid

Fees 

By an official decision of our University:
Non-EU international students will pay for the same course the same fees as French students.

As a consequence, all UCP students will benefit from the French politics of low fees concerning education. They will receive a partial exemption from the registration fees. This partial exemption will be automatic and will apply without students having to make any explicit request. It will be valid for the whole duration of the study cycle.

As this is a French National Master program, academic tuition fees are fixed annually by the government, they are approximately 250€/year, including student’s health care insurance ("securité sociale étudiante") + 90€/year for a contribution to student life and campus (CVEC, https://cvec.etudiant.gouv.fr/)

Non-French-speaking students should add approximately 210€/year for French Language and Culture courses.  These courses are part of the TPA program for non-French speaking students and they are taught at CILFAC

Financial Aid

"Eiffel scholarships"

The Eiffel Excellence Scholarship Programme was established by the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Development to enable French higher education establishments to attract top foreign students to enroll in master’s (and PhD courses).
It defines priority areas of study, and encourages applications from emerging countries at master’s level (and from emerging and industrialized countries at PhD level).
