ACADEMIC PREPARATION

Know your application route.

See the official programme page for the full academic and language checklist; application is submitted online through the PSL portal, followed by an interview.

Prepare your application file.

  • Bachelor’s qualification, full transcripts and grading scale
  • CV and a programme-specific statement of purpose
  • English/other teaching-language evidence or an accepted exemption
  • Academic references and any programme-specific portfolio, research proposal or test
  • Passport details and a separate tuition, living-cost and visa-funding plan

This is a preparation checklist; the programme portal determines the required attachments.

Applicants resident in India should begin with Campus France India. The application route depends on the programme and institution; an admission offer does not automatically complete the pre-consular steps.

SCHOLARSHIPS & NEXT STEPS

Build your funding plan.

Eiffel Master’s awards include a €1,200 monthly allowance from January 2026 and specified support services. The 2027 national institution-nomination deadline is 6 January 2027; universities set earlier internal dates. The French institution nominates the student. Tuition coverage follows separate scheme/institution rules; funding is secured only after an award.

Official scholarship opportunities ↗

Prepare academic results, references and a strong motivation statement. Check award coverage, nationality eligibility, separate application dates and renewal conditions. Keep a self-funded budget until an award is confirmed.
