Applicants resident in one of the 66 countries covered by the Études en France procedure (the list includes Ghana, Nigeria, Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire, Senegal, Kenya and many others) apply on the Campus France Études en France site; for the 2025-2026 round, applications ran from 1 October to 15 December 2025. Applicants living abroad in a country outside the procedure complete the 'Dossier blanc' and file it at the cultural cooperation service (SCAC) of the French embassy by 15 December 2025; applicants living in France use the 'Dossier vert' filed at the Service de Scolarité centrale by the same date. A good knowledge of French is required for first-cycle entry, and the TCF-DAP (Test de connaissance du français for the DAP) must be taken, with registration closing on 15 December 2025.

Master year 1

Applications are made on the national Mon Master platform by holders, or future holders, of a Diplôme National de Licence or equivalent; for 2026 the international application window ran from 17 February to 16 March 2026.

Doctorate

Holders of foreign degrees apply for a derogatory admission (admission dérogatoire) through the UHA branch of the Collège doctoral, supplying a supervisor's letter, detailed CV, diploma certificates, master transcripts and dissertation, list of publications and proof of funding. Co-supervision (cotutelle) requests must be presented before or with the cotutelle project. Contact: [email protected].

Applications for a permit renewal should start two months before expiry.
