EIFFEL SCHOLARSHIPS 2025-2027
The Eiffel Excellence Scholarship Program 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 their master's and PhD courses.
Applicants to EIFFEL may be selected among the best by Université Jean Monnet (UJM) to apply for this scholarship, providing they apply to the iPSRS program in due time (early application, typically between September and mid-November).
>> The student applying for the Master's program who wishes to obtain an Eiffel scholarship must complete their application and send an email specifying their wish before November 10th, 2024. The selection committee will then evaluate the quality of their application and determine whether to submit their file for the Eiffel scholarship. If so, the student will be contacted to quickly provide some documents (basically the same required for the application). The final decision belongs to the French Government and is usually displayed in April.
