Registering at the University of Franche-Comté
In exchange programmes (Erasmus +, ISEP, BCI, IAU)
You should contact the exchange officers and the international office of your home institution.
Exchange students will not receive a diploma from the University of Franche-Comté but a transcript of records. Before leaving your university, you should therefore make sure that the studies you have completed at the University of Franche-Comté will be valid at your home university and prepare a study programme with your home institution’s officials.
When you arrive in Franche-Comté, you should contact the international office of the University of Franche-Comté (DRIF), which will provide you with all the necessary assistance and give you a provisional certificate of registration.
Excluding exchange programmes
Before registering, you will have to pay the Contribution vie étudiante et de campus (CVEC), intended to finance certain services of the University of Franche-Comté and the Crous (organisation that provides reception and social, health, cultural and athletic support). For the academic year 2024-2025, the amount of the CVEC is 103 euros. The settlement is made by payment or by exemption on the website messervices.etudiant.gouv.fr.
You must then use the platform admission.univ-fcomte.fr to register at the University of Franche-Comté and pay your registration fees. Select your language at the bottom of the page.
Pay the registration fee
In exchange programmes (Erasmus +, ISEP, BCI, IAU)
Exchange students benefit from special registration conditions. In some cases, they are exempt from these conditions. Please check with the international office of your home institution before your departure.
Excluding exchange programmes
Are you a student from a country of the European Union, the European Economic Area or Switzerland? The registration fees are identical to those paid by French students.
Are you a student from outside the European Union? By decision of the President of the University of Franche-Comté, students coming from outside of the EU subject to differentiated fees systematically benefit, without any express request on their part, from a partial exemption reducing the fees to be paid to the same amount paid by French students for the same diploma.
Tuition fees for the academic year 2024-2025 set by the Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation.
As an indication, here are the amounts for the academic year 2024-2025 applicable to national students:
- 175 euros: for an annual registration in ‘DEUST’ (2-year scientific and technical education diploma), ‘DUT’ (2-year technical education diploma)), bachelor’s degree, ‘licence’’ (undergraduate degree), ‘licence professionnelle’ (professional undergraduate degree)
- 250 euros: for one year in a master cycle
- 391 euros: for one year of doctorate
