Registering at Marie and Louis Pasteur University

In exchange programmes (Erasmus +, ISEP, IAU)

You should contact the exchange officers and the international office of your home institution.

Exchange students will not receive a diploma from Marie and Louis Pasteur University but a transcript of records. Before leaving your university, you should therefore make sure that the studies you have completed at Marie and Louis Pasteur University 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 Marie and Louis Pasteur University (DREIF : dreif@umlp.fr), 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 Marie and Louis Pasteur University and the Crous (organisation that provides a range of services to students, including housing, food services, cultural and sportive activities). For the academic year 2025-2026, the amount of the CVEC is 105 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 Marie and Louis Pasteur University and pay your registration fees.

PAY THE REGISTRATION FEE

Exemptions may be granted by the institutions to international students, upon request, in light of their personal situation (student from a country in crisis, refugee student, student with a disability, student experiencing financial difficulties…).

International students must request their exemption. To do so, you need to turn to department office.
