Registrations for the 2024-2025 academic year are now closed. If you wish to join us for the 2025-2026 academic year, please apply during the dedicated application campaign.

 

 ENROLLMENT ONLINE OR IN PERSON ? 

  • ONLINE ENROLLMENT / IA WEB:

If you are comfortable enough with the language and do not benefit from any waiver, you may proceed with the online registration process.

  • ENROLLMENT IN PERSON :

  • Students who received a fee waiver (exempted from the 5,500 € tuition fees of the Master's programs, international track)
  • International students receiving a scholarship (Campus France, embassy scholarship, or any scholarship sent by an international institution). Do not hesitate to let us know as soon as you received confirmation of your scholarship.

 

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO STUDY AT TSE?

Enrollment fees depend on the program and your profile as a student. You will find the detailed cost below.

A national student contribution called CVEC is however required for any student registering in a French higher education institution. It is the first step of the enrollment procedure - see below.

 

 NATIONAL STUDENT CONTRIBUTION (CVEC) 

Before enrolling, you will need to pay the national student tax called CVEC (Contribution Vie Etudiante et de Campus) amounting to 103 €.

The CVEC must be paid directly to the CROUS. After the payment, you will get a payment certificate or a waiver certificate. This certificate is mandatory at the moment of your enrollment at the university (online or in person). All students, including scholarship holders, can obtain a certificate relating to the payment or exemption of the CVEC via the portal cvec.etudiant.gouv.fr.

For more information :

  • CVEC website (only in French).
  • You can contact the CROUS directly at this number +33140513735 to know more (English-speaking contacts for international students).

The Admissions Office will forward you all the necessary information to pay the CVEC (translations in English) and proceed with your registration in person.

For a Bachelor’s degree:

  • 141 € per year + 34 € for accessing the library services (payable only once for the same academic year), namely 175 €
