The best known national programme is the France Excellence Eiffel scholarship, run by the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs through Campus France. It pays EUR 1,200 a month at master's level and EUR 2,000 a month at PhD level (from January 2026), to applicants under 29 (master's) or 35 (PhD). A student cannot apply directly: the French institution that wants to admit the candidate submits the nomination. Beyond Eiffel, many universities and grandes ecoles run their own tuition exemptions, top-up bursaries or need-based aid for admitted non-EU students; check the fees or scholarships page of each institution, which is listed on its record on this site.
