‘Differentiated tuition fees’ for non-EU students
*For non-EU students
In line with the resolution voted by the Board of Governors on 15 December 2020, Université Paris-Saclay intends to develop a strong policy of attracting national, European and non-EU students.
As a result, accepted candidates affected by the decree and order relating to registration fees in public higher education establishments under the authority of the Minister in charge of higher education will have to pay the same amount of registration fees as national students without having to explicitly request it.
This partial exemption will apply for the entire duration of the study cycle, including if a year has to be repeated.
