Scholarships
Scholarship applications are generally individual.
Students are invited to contact the French Embassy in their country to find out about their scholarship programme. Students can contact their institution's international office for information about mobility grants offered by their government. In addition, students from Brazil, Argentina and Mexico may be eligible for FITEC grants.
The best students admitted to the double degree programme are eligible to apply for an Eiffel scholarship through the International Relations Office of Chimie ParisTech - PSL, which will prepare the application.
We recommend consulting the Campus France website, which lists numerous
scholarship opportunities.

Students enrolled in a double degree programme can stay at the CROUS Castagnary residence, located at 71 rue Castagnary, 75015 Paris, 30 minutes away from Chimie ParisTech - PSL. Rent is approximately €430 per month for a furnished studio.
