Scholarships and financial aid for European students
Please note: European Students are students from a European Union member state country (other than France) or from a European Economic Area (EEA) member country.
CROUS bursaries (based on household income)
European students who have studied in France for at least one year are eligible to apply for the CROUS needs-based bursary by completing a Student Social File (Dossier Social Etudiant)(fr.) on the CROUS website as of March. Students are required to apply every year and must complete their application before 31 May.
Financial aid for students without a Crous Bursary
Students without a CROUS bursary whose tuition fees amount to €0 after calculation receive an annual financial aid of €400.
This aid is disbursed as a lump sum as of September onwards, provided that the student’s administrative registration is finalised. It is only disbursed for years or semesters (50% of the amount) during which courses are attended at Sciences Po or during compulsory internship periods, and is conditioned to attendance.
