Differentiated registration fees for students from outside the European Union

You are exempt from the differentiated enrolment fees if you meet at least one of the following criteria
- Students who are residents of Québec;
- International students holding a long-term resident permit, as well as students who have declared France as their tax residence, or who have been attached to a French tax household, for more than two years;
- Students who have been granted refugee status or subsidiary protection, as well as the children of individuals holding either status;
- International students enrolled in doctoral programs, the Habilitation à diriger des recherches (HDR), and third-cycle medical, dental, and pharmaceutical programs, with the exception of short-cycle programs;
- International students of any nationality enrolled in a classe préparatoire aux grandes écoles (CPGE) who are also concurrently enrolled in a Bachelor’s degree program at a French university.
Mandatory tax – CVEC contribution
The Contribution to Campus and Student Life (CVEC) applies to French and international students who are about to study at a higher education institution. It is used to fund initiatives for students: access to healthcare, social support, sporting activities, access to the arts and culture, and improvements to student facilities.
The fee is €105 for the 2026/2027 academic year (unless an exemption applies).
You must complete the process on the website https://cvec.etudiant.gouv.fr/.
Once you have completed this process, you will receive a certificate of payment or a certificate of exemption, which will show your CVEC number.
You must provide your CVEC certificate when you register with EHESP, even if you are exempt.
