How to apply for an Eiffel scholarship?

The submission of an Eiffel application can only be done by the university. Therefore, any application can only be validated if a professor from the Faculty of Law and Social Sciences undertakes to support the file. In fact, Eiffel is a program of excellence whose access is restricted to students who present high-level results: therefore, the applications submitted by the faculty are carefully selected.

The candidate must send, by email to the address ri.droit@univpoitiers.fr the following documents:

  • The application form: to download at click here
  • A cover letter that clearly specifies the candidate’s current profile and details their curriculum in France
  • CV
  • Certificate of grades of the career (only law studies)

Students from non-French-speaking countries must also present a certificate of proficiency at the C1 level of French language. Any other document that is considered useful for the examination of the application can be added (all documents should be in PDF and, if possible, in a single combined PDF). Documents in foreign languages other than English and Spanish must be translated.

The dossier will be examined by a selection jury at the beginning of December due to the deadline that will be respected later in front of the University of Poitiers and then Campus-France.

Therefore, applications must be submitted by 19 November 2021. No dossier received after this date will be examined.

After the meeting of the selection jury, the Eiffel file to be completed will be sent to the selected candidates, to be returned no later than December 10, 2021 for the University of Poitiers to officially present it to Campus-France in early January 2022.
