Eiffel Excellence Scholarship Application Guide
Introduction
Thank you for your interest in EURECOM and the Eiffel Excellence Scholarship Programme.
This document provides a comprehensive guide to the application process for the
scholarship, which supports outstanding international students pursuing graduate studies at
EURECOM. Please read the following information carefully to ensure a successful
application.
Important Notes on the Application Process
Before proceeding, please note the following key points:
• Two Separate Processes: The application for admission to one of EURECOM's
programs and the application for the Eiffel Excellence Scholarship are two distinct
processes.
o The admission application must be submitted through our online application
portal .
o The Eiffel Scholarship application must be sent by email to
[email protected] While some documents required may seem similar, the criteria for each
process differ.
• Prerequisite for Scholarship Eligibility: For your Eiffel Scholarship application to be
considered eligible, you must have submitted and completed your admission
application through the online portal prior to submitting your scholarship application.
• No Guarantee of Scholarship: Being admitted to one of EURECOM's programs does
not guarantee the Eiffel Excellence Scholarship. This is a highly competitive national
scholarship, and selection is determined by a special committee.
Submission Process
As part of our selection process, we invite you to formally submit your Eiffel Excellence
Scholarship application. Please note that submitting these documents does not guarantee
institutional support. However, it allows us to evaluate your profile and, if selected, proceed
with your nomination within the tight deadlines set by Campus France.
• Deadline: All documents must be sent by November 25, 2025. Late applications will
not be considered.
Funding
The Eiffel Excellence Scholarship for Graduate programs will fund:
• The 2nd year of a Master's degree program – 12 months

31, 1996).
