Important Information

Registration fee:

178 € for the 2026–2027 school year (set by ministerial decree).

This amount includes:

  • The Right to a Diploma
  • Access to the University Library

The Nîmes IUT is part of the University of Montpellier (UM), but it is actually located in Nîmes.

School Division Closure: From Thursday, July 23 (inclusive) through Friday, August 21 (inclusive).

Registration will reopen on Monday, August 24.

School, college, or extracurricular insurance, or liability insurance: an important supporting document

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

This type of insurance covers the obligation of every individual to compensate others for damages caused by fault, carelessness, negligence, or by objects owned, rented, or borrowed.

Important: What document do I need to provide? Or where can I get it?

  • You can obtain this document from your insurer, your health insurance provider, or when opening a bank account in France
  • Be careful not to over-insure yourself: Before purchasing any policy, check first to see if your comprehensive home insurance or renters insurance (or your parents’ policies) already covers your personal life or school-related and extracurricular activities.
  • The certificate must be valid as of the date of registration and must include your first and last name.
  • Professional liability insurance does not correspond to the application submitted for administrative registration.
  • Similarly, a membership application or proof of payment of dues does not constitute proof of insurance: neither of these two documents is acceptable.
  • The certificate must include the words “civil liability.”

When I log in to the app, nothing happens. What should I do?
I probably have a problem with pop-up blocking (in my browser settings or through an ad-blocking add-on).
I need to unblock them to be able to sign up. It’s also a good idea to clear my browsing history.


I was enrolled at UM in a previous academic year but not in 2025–2026. I can’t re-enroll online—what should I do?
I need to contact the registration office.

I registered online. How do I submit my supporting documents online?
I log in to the “PJ Web” application for submitting supporting documents via the icon available in my ENT (Digital Workspace).

Please note: If this is my first time enrolling at UM, I must first activate my account onthe ENT (Digital Workspace).


I need to submit my supporting documents online via “PJ Web.” What file formats are accepted, and what is the maximum file size for each file?

  • The permitted file extensions are: “jpeg,” “jpg,” “pdf,” and “png”; however, the ID photo must be submitted in “jpeg” or “jpg” format only.
  • I prefer scanned images to photographs, but photographs are accepted as long as they are legible and of good quality.
  • The size of each file must not exceed 4 MB.
  • How can I tell if the Admissions Office has received the supporting documents I submitted online via the “PJ Web” application?
    I need to log in to the “PJ Web application for submitting supporting documents via the icon available in your ENT (Digital Workspace) and check the validation status of the documents I submitted.
    I check my email regularly. The admissions office will contact me regarding my supporting documents.

    I need to log back into the “PJ Web” application; the reason for the rejection will be indicated there.
    I then need to upload a new supporting document and resubmit it via the application.

    On the “PJ web” application for online document submission, I can only upload a single file, even though I have multiple files that correspond to the requested supporting document.
    There are free tools available for scanning documents with your cell phone. These tools also allow you to combine PDF files so that you have two files in one. I can easily find these free tools online.
    There are also features on computers that allow you to merge multiple PDF documents (PDF printer).

    I need to report this to my registration office.
    I can add a blank page with the note “NOT APPLICABLE.”

    I must report any data entry errors to the registration office, which will make the corrections.

BEA / INE / Student Number

What is the difference between these three numbers? The Base-Elèves Académique ( BEA) is a number assigned to every sixth-grade student in France to identify them individually in secondary school. The Identifiant National Etudiant ( INE) has been assigned to all students enrolled in their final year of high school in France since 1995 or who are already enrolled in a French public institution of higher education.

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

INE numbers assigned prior to 2018 consist 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 its format (15 digits) and its purpose.

The INE is generally included on the high school diploma transcript (for the final year or early exams). It also appears on academic transcripts issued by high schools and universities.

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


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

  • If I took the French baccalaureate or was enrolled in a French higher education program: I can find this information on my baccalaureate transcript or on my higher education transcript.
  • If I am an international student and have already studied in the French higher education system: I can find my INE number on my student ID card, certificate of enrollment, or transcript.

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


I forgot to enter my INE when I registered online, and I’ve been assigned a new one. What should I do?
I need to report this issue to the registration office right away.




Mailing Address

What if I don't know my address at the start of the school year? What should I enter when I register?
It is recommended that you provide a permanent home address that will be valid in the fall. In this case, don't forget to specify "c/o Mr./Mrs. …" if my name does not appear on the mailbox.

I can then notify the registration office of my change of address at any time. The address provided at the time of registration is particularly important because it is the one that will be used to contact me by mail, if necessary.


I'm going to change my address during the academic year. Do I need to report this?
Yes, I need to report this to the registration office as soon as possible.

Can I register on someone else’s behalf?
Current regulations do not allow registration by a third party. If I am unable to register in person due to a major obstacle, I must contact the Registrar’s Office.

I can only enroll in an apprenticeship program if I have received the certificate of enrollment from the CFA; I can contact the admissions office.

You must register under French citizenship.


I have been on a break from my studies for more than two years. What should I do?
I need to submit a request for authorization to resume my studies to the University’s Continuing Education Office to find out whether I am considered a student in the undergraduate program or the continuing education program.


While waiting for a response from another educational institution, I enrolled at the University of Montpellier. What should I do if I change my mind about my future studies?

I must contact the Registrar’s Office as soon as possible to request a cancellation and a refund of tuition fees. I am automatically entitled to a refund if I submit a written request before August 24, 2026. However, refund requests for cancellations submitted after that date must be reviewed by a committee based on specific criteria and may be denied if I do not provide sufficient supporting documentation.

Please note: Requesting cancellation of registration and withdrawing from an admissions platform (Parcoursup, eCandidat, etc.) are two separate procedures. Any request to cancel registration must be submitted to the Registration Office.

I should contact the registrar’s office ; the transfer process must follow a specific procedure. The transfer is subject to the approval of the heads of both institutions.

Any late registration is automatically subject to approval for late registration, which may be denied if sufficient supporting documentation is not provided.

Multi-Service Student Card (CMS)

The card grants access to the University’s campuses and facilities. It must be presented to university officials or their designated representatives whenever requested. Failure to present the card may result in disciplinary action. Lending, exchanging, forging, or attempting to forge the card is prohibited and subject to penalties, including disciplinary action.

When and where can I get my student ID card?
When I complete my initial registration at the University of Montpellier, the Registrar’s Office will issue my student ID card. When I re-register, the card is updated with a sticker indicating the academic year.


I’ve lost my card, or it was stolen, or it’s damaged (bent, has holes, etc.). What should I do?
First, I’ll check with my academic office to see if it’s been turned in.
I can request a replacement (for a fee) through the “CMSWEB” app via my digital campus portal (click the “Student ID Card” icon). However, if the card is defective (inactive, not working, etc.), I must bring it to my registrar’s office: it may be a manufacturing defect. In that case, it will be replaced free of charge.

Scol’Pass / Proof of Enrollment

The Scol’Pass is an A4-sized document that includes, among other things, three certificates of enrollment and the receipt for tuition and registration fees. The Scol’Pass is issued upon completion of my registration, provided my application is complete.

The Scol’Pass isn’t the only way to obtain a certificate of enrollment. If your enrollment is in good standing, I can access it through my online account (ENT) (under the “My File” tab – “Enrollment” section).

How can I obtain my enrollment certificate and/or a receipt for paid fees?
I will be able to download my enrollment certificate and/or receipt for paid fees from my ENT (the “My File” tab – “Enrollment” section) once I have submitted my supporting documents (via the “PJ web” app) and the registration office has approved them.
