After the start of the academic year

Exemption Committee 2nd session – Students who enrolled late following an exemption only
Submission of reimbursement requests before March 13, 2026
Enrollment in a university is subject to the payment of annual tuition fees set by ministerial decree. An exceptional exemption procedure is provided for in Article R 719-50 of the Education Code.
Requests for reimbursement of registration fees will be reviewed by the Exemption and Reimbursement Committee for its opinion, before a decision is made by the President of the University of Montpellier (
), which will be sent directly to the applicant by mail.
Below are the various reasons that may entitle you to a refund:
=> Without cancellation of administrative registration
– Academic results (success in the absence of scholarships)
– Health problems (medical impediment to attending classes)
=> With cancellation of administrative registration
– Financial hardship
– Health problems (medical reasons preventing attendance in class)
– Change of direction outside the University of Montpellier and outside public higher education institutions
– Entry into working life or job search
The following are not covered by the commission:
=> Students taking a gap year
=> Financial difficulties without cancellation of enrollment: these are covered by the CROUS social services department, as specifically mentioned on the exceptional reimbursement request form.
In the event of cancellation of registration, a flat-rate administrative fee of €23, set by ministerial decree, will be deducted from the refund.

Please note: the Mitra department only handles exemption requests for courses delivered by the FDS. If you are enrolled in other courses within the UM (IAE, Polytech, etc.), you must submit as many requests as you have enrollments with the relevant departments.
