Academic year 2026–2027: means-tested grants for engineering students to be assessed and administered by the CROUS

The École nationale des ponts et chaussées has signed an agreement with the Créteil CROUS: from the start of the 2026–2027 academic year, means-tested grants for engineering students will be processed and administered by the CROUS Créteil.

Apply for a grant

Students wishing to apply for a means-tested grant must complete their Student Financial Support Form (DSE) via the national portal: https://messervices.etudiant.gouv.fr/
We recommend that you complete this process as soon as possible to ensure your application is processed without delay.

Exemption from tuition fees

Students receiving a means-tested grant are exempt from paying tuition fees.

Special circumstances

Students on long-term work placements or taking a gap year are not eligible for a means-tested grant during this period.
For any queries regarding an individual’s circumstances, the processing of an application or a potential appeal, please contact the CROUS.

International students who are not eligible for CROUS support

International students who are not eligible for CROUS means-tested grants will receive a separate communication at the end of June setting out the financial support options available to them.
