CASE Emergency Student Aid (Comité d'Aide Spécifique aux Étudiants), Université des Antilles

Université des Antilles, France

Scholarship overview

The Comité d'aide spécifique aux étudiants (CASE) is an internal Université des Antilles scheme giving exceptional, one-off support to students facing a financial or material emergency. Each case is reviewed confidentially and individually.

It does not replace national social aid but steps in when those schemes cannot act or do not fit the situation.
