Registration at a university is subject to payment of annual registration fees set by ministerial decree. An exceptional exemption procedure is provided for in article R 719-50 of the French Education Code.
Requests for reimbursement of tuition fees will be examined by the exemption and reimbursement commission for its opinion, prior to a decision by the
President of the University of Montpellier, which will be sent directly to the applicant by post.
Below are the different reasons that may give rise to a refund:
=> Without cancellation of administrative registration
- Academic results (Success in the absence of scholarships)
- Health problems (medical impediment to attendance)
=> With cancellation of administrative registration
- Financial difficulty
- Health problems (medical impediment to attendance)
- Reorientation outside the University of Montpellier and outside the public higher education establishment
- Entry into working life or job search
The following are not covered by the committee's remit:
=> Students on a gap year
=> Financial difficulties without cancellation of enrolment: these are dealt with by the CROUS social action department, as specifically mentioned on the exceptional reimbursement request form.
In the event of cancellation of registration, a flat-rate administration fee of 23 euros, set by ministerial decree, will be deducted from the refund.
Exceptional refund requests are no longer possible for 2024-2025.

Please note: the mitra center only handles exemption requests for courses offered by the FDS. If you are enrolled in other courses at the UM (IAE, Polytech, etc.), you must submit as many requests as you are enrolled in to the relevant departments.
