Q: How much are the registration fees, and who is eligible for exemption?

University enrollment fees for initial training are set annually by a decree from the Ministry of Higher Education, Research, and Innovation. They differ depending on whether the student is enrolling in a bachelor's or master's degree program (but are identical for the three years of a bachelor's degree and the two years of a master's degree). For information, for the 2025-2026 academic year, these fees amounted to €178 for a bachelor's degree year and €254 for a master's degree year. Added to these amounts is the cost of the CVEC (€105 for the 2025-2026 academic year). If you are a French government scholarship recipient, a social criteria scholarship recipient, or a ward of the state, you are exempt from registration fees and the CVEC.
