Registration / Re-registration

You are required to provide proof of valid school/university/extracurricular insurance or civil liability insurance. All students must be covered by civil liability insurance as part of their studies (see the internal regulations of the University of Montpellier).

This is insurance that corresponds to the obligation of each individual to repair damage caused to others through fault, carelessness, negligence, or through objects owned, rented, or borrowed.

Important: What documents do I need to provide? Where can I obtain them?

• You can obtain this document from your insurer, your mutual insurance company, or when opening a bank account in France.
• Be careful not to over-insure yourself: before taking out any policy, check that your comprehensive home insurance or rental insurance (or your parents' insurance) does not already cover your private life or school/extracurricular activities.
• The certificate must be valid on the date of registration and include your first and last name.
• Professional civil liability does not correspond to the request made for administrative registration.
• Similarly, a membership form or payment slip does not constitute proof of insurance: these two documents are not acceptable.
• The certificate must bear the words "civil liability."

I am a minor. What documents do I need to provide?
You must provide authorization for enrollment from your legal guardians. Once completed, it will be kept in your file by the registration department.

Applications for scholarships, and possibly student housing, are handled by the CROUS in Montpellier after you submit aStudent Social File. When you register, you will be asked to provide notification of your scholarship with a mention of your level, which exempts you from registration fees.

I did not receive my CROUS notification when I registered. What should I do?
You will register at the full rate and, once you receive your notification, you can request a refund of your registration fees.
If you request payment in three installments, the refund can only be made at least fifteen days after the last payment, which will occur within two to three months of your registration.
If you declared yourself as a scholarship recipient when you registered/re-registered online but have not yet received your CROUS notification, you will be asked to pay the registration fees.

How can I obtain a refund of my registration fees if I am awarded a scholarship after registering?
Refunds are made by bank transfer. You must present the following to the registrar's office: your student card, a copy of both sides of the CROUS notification stating your grant level, and your bank details, preferably in your name. If the refund is to be made to a third party's bank account, you must attach athird-party refund authorization to their bank details.

Registration fees are set by ministerial decree. They include the right to a diploma and access to the University Library.
Details of the fees paid during your registration can be found at:

• on the Scol'Pass fee receipt, issued upon request by your school
• or on your registration summary, which can be downloaded online from your computer account (ENT) (click on the "Registration Summary" tab).

Registration will only be completed upon receipt of payment. Cash payments are not accepted by the registration department.

Can I defer payment by check?
No. Registration payments are processed daily in accordance with current regulations. If you anticipate having difficulty making your payment, please contact the registrar's office.

I don't have a payment method. Can someone else pay the registration fees for me?
Yes. However, please be careful to check the creditworthiness of this third party so that you do not end up with an unpaid debt to the university.

Is it possible to pay in installments?
Yes, for enrollment in a national diploma program. Payment in three installments is possible for amounts of €100 or more. The first installment must be paid by credit card during online enrollment. At the same time, the other two installments will be authorized for direct debit. This payment method is not possible if the credit card expires before the last scheduled debit.
Before paying in three installments, make sure your credit card is valid for all three payments.

I am unable to pay online. What should I do?
Contact the Faculty's registration department, who will be able to offer you solutions. Only Visa and Mastercard are accepted for online payments.

I registered online, but my payment was declined. What happens now?
Please note that payment is required for online registration. If your payment is declined, contact the Faculty's registration department to complete your registration.

What is the difference between these three numbers?
The Base-Elèves Académique, orBEA,is a number assigned to every sixth-grade student in France, allowing for individual identification in secondary education. The Identifiant National Etudiant, orINE,is assigned to all students enrolled in twelfth grade in France since 1995 or already enrolled in a French public higher education institution.

Since 2018, the INE number has consisted of eleven characters, only the last two of which are letters.

The INE number assigned prior to 2018 consists of eleven characters, combining numbers and 1 to 5 letters.

The INE number differs from the social security number, also known as the INSEE number, in terms of format (fifteen digits) and use.

The INE number is usually included on high school transcripts (final exams or early exams). It is also included on school certificates issued by high schools and universities.

Yourstudent number(in addition to your name) serves as your personal identifier, particularly in cases where there are people with the same name. The student number assigned by the University of Montpellier cannot be used at other universities, unlike the INE number, which is recognized nationally.

I can't find my INE (National Student ID) number.
The INE number is required for your administrative registration.

• If you have applied for a French baccalaureate or have been enrolled in French higher education: you can find it on your baccalaureate transcript or on your higher education transcript.
• If you are an international student and have already studied in the French higher education system: you will find your INE number on your student card, certificate of enrollment, or on your transcripts.

I don't have an INE number. What should I do?
The university will assign you an INE number when you first enroll. It will then be valid at all French universities.

I forgot to enter my INE when I registered online and I have been assigned a new one. What should I do?

You must report the anomaly to the registrar's office immediately.

I don't know my address at the start of the school year. What should I enter when I register?
We recommend providing a permanent family address that will be valid in the fall. In this case, don't forget to specify "c/o Mr./Mrs...." if your name does not appear on the mailbox. You can then notify the registrar's office of your change of address at any time. The address you provide when you register is particularly important because it will be used to communicate with you by mail, if necessary.

I will be changing my address during the academic year. Do I need to report this?
Yes, you must report this to your registrar's office as soon as possible. Your address is particularly important because it will be used to contact you by mail, if necessary.

Requests for study and/or exam accommodations in 2025-2026

When and where can I obtain my student card?
When you complete your initial administrative registration at the University of Montpellier, at the registration center or the registrar's office. The relevant department will provide you with details of the procedure. When you re-register, your card will be updated with a sticker indicating the academic year.

I have lost my card, or it has been stolen or damaged (bent, torn, etc.). What should I do?
You can request a replacement (for a fee) on CMSWEB from yourENT(under the "Student Card" tab). However, if the card is defective (inactive, silent, etc.), you must go to your registrar's office: it may be a manufacturing defect. In this case, it will be replaced free of charge.
