Registrations

I consult the registration procedures on the pages dedicated to administrative registration on the website of the University Institute of Technology (IUT) in Nîmes.

Depending on my situation, I can:

• either use the re-enrollment application (available via your ENT computer account)
• or use the initial registration application at the University of Montpellier.
• or register directly with the IUT, after submitting a request to iutn-inscription@umontpellier.fr

I prepare the required supporting documents, including: my INE number, my CVEC certificate, my Parcoursup file number, eCandidat, etc.
I log in to the registration application and fill in the required fields to complete my online registration.

Please note that I must have confirmed my admission on Parcoursup or eCandidat beforehand (at least the day before my registration).

How do I log in to the application for my first registration with UM "Primoweb"?
I need my username (Parcoursup, eCandidat), which must be 10 characters long, my date of birth, and the email address I provided on the application platform.

I have the necessary information on the registration application's home page.

I went through the Parcoursup or eCandidat procedure. How do I log in to the registration application? Or I am getting a message saying "Unknown user." What should I do?
I check the following points or log in with the correct credentials:

• my username (depending on the application platform):
  • P26 + 7-digit Parcoursup code (to be confirmed)
  • EC + 8 characters eCandidate (to be confirmed)
• the format of my date of birth: ddmmyyyy (e.g., 12081992)
• My email address (this must be the one used on my application)
  Please note, I will ensure that I have confirmed my choice/admission on Parcoursup, eCandidat, within the specified time frame.
  If so, I will have to wait until the next working day after my confirmation to register on the "Primo Web" application.

How do I log in to the "Réins web" application to re-enroll at UM?
First, I log in to my UM computer account (ENT).
Then, I click on the corresponding thumbnail.

When I log in to the app, nothing happens. What should I do?
I probably have a pop-up blocker enabled (in my browser settings or via an add-on such as Ad Block).
I need to disable it in order to register. It is also advisable to clear/delete my history.

I was enrolled at UM in a previous academic year but not for the 2025–2026 academic year. I’m having trouble re-enrolling online. What should I do?
I need to contact the Registrar’s 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 registering 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," except for passport photos, which must be provided in "jpeg" or "jpg" format only.
• I prefer scans to photographs, but photographs are acceptable if they are legible and of good quality.
• The size of each file must not exceed 4 MB.
• How can I know if the registration department has received my supporting documents, which I submitted online using the "PJ Web" application?
  I need to log in to the "PJ Web" application for submitting supporting documents via the link available in your ENT (Digital Workspace) and check the validation status of the documents I have provided.
  I check my email regularly. The registration department will contact me about my supporting documents.
  
  One of my supporting documents has been "rejected." What should I do?
  I need to log back into the "PJ Web" application, where the reason for rejection will be indicated.
  I then need to submit a new supporting document and resend it using the application.
  
  On the "PJ web" application for online document submission, I can only submit one file, but I have several files that correspond to the requested supporting document.
  There are free tools available for scanning documents with your mobile 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 on the internet.
  There are also computer features that allow you to merge multiple PDF documents (PDF printer).
• On the "PJ web" application for online document submission, what should I do if a document does not apply to me?
  I must report this to my registration department.
  I can add a blank page with the words NOT APPLICABLE.
  
  I registered online and made a mistake when entering my date of birth, the spelling of my surname/first name (or any other information) and I can no longer correct it. What should I do?
  I must report any input errors to the registration department, which will make the corrections.

What is the difference between these three numbers? The Base-Elèves Académique, or BEA, is a number assigned to every sixth-grade student in France, allowing for individual identification in secondary education. The Identifiant National Etudiant, or INE, 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.

Your student 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 my administrative registration.

• If I was a candidate for a French baccalaureate or enrolled in French higher education: I can find it 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 will find my INE number on my student card, certificate of enrollment, or transcripts.

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

I forgot to enter my INE when registering online and I have been assigned a new one. What should I do?
I need to report the error to the registration department immediately.

I don't know my address for 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 my name does not appear on the mailbox.

I can then notify the registration department of any change of address at any time. The address provided at the time of registration is particularly important as it will be used to contact me by post if necessary.

I will be changing my address during the academic year. Do I need to report this?
Yes, I must report this as soon as possible to the registration department.

Requests for accommodations for coursework and/or exams and competitive exams in 2026–2027

1. On the registration form, I fill in the section entitled "declare a disability."
2. First-time registration at UM: complete the online form. Re-registration at UM: go to your ENT, "Handy" tab, to submit your request.
3. I am making an appointment for an interview with the preventive medicine service (SCMPPS) and the Handiversité service.

Please note: All requests for exam and/or study accommodations must be made each academic year before November 30 of the current year.

The University of Montpellier offers various special statuses that give rise to study accommodations: high-level athlete status, artist status, employee status, innovative entrepreneur status, committed student status, etc.

To find out what steps to take and the criteria and procedures for obtaining the various statuses, I visit the Successful Studies page on the University website: Successful Studies – University of Montpellier

Can I register by proxy?
Current regulations do not allow registration by a third party. In the event of a major impediment, I must notify the registrar's office.

I am waiting to sign an apprenticeship contract. Can I still register?
I can only register for an apprenticeship if I have received the CFA's certificate of commitment; I can contact the registration office.

I am a minor. What do I need to do to register?
I must provide a registration authorization form signed by my legal guardians (see the list of required documents provided by my school). Once completed, the form will be kept on file by the registration office.

I have dual nationality, including French nationality. Which nationality should I register under?
You must register under French nationality.

I have interrupted my studies for more than two years. What should I do?
I need to apply for authorization to resume my studies from the University's Continuing Education Department to find out whether I am eligible for initial training or continuing education.

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 continuing my 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 by 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 sufficient supporting documentation is not provided.

Please note: requesting cancellation of registration and withdrawing from an admissions platform (Parcoursup, eCandidat, etc.) are two separate procedures. All requests for cancellation of registration must be made to the registration department.

I am enrolled at another French university and would like to request a transfer during the academic year. How do I proceed? I will contact the registrar's office ; the transfer procedure must follow a specific process. The transfer is subject to the agreement of both university heads.

I have interrupted my studies for more than two years. What should I do?
You must apply for authorization to resume your studies from the University's Continuing Education Department to find out whether you are eligible for initial training or continuing education, which may be funded.

What happens if I don't register within the required time frame?
Registration takes place according to a specific schedule that is widely communicated.
Any late registration is automatically subject to late registration authorization, which may be refused in the absence of supporting documentation.

For any other requests, I will contact the education department.

The card grants access to the University's premises and facilities. It must be presented to University authorities or their designated representatives whenever requested. Any refusal to present the card will result in disciplinary proceedings against the student. Any lending, exchange, falsification, or attempted falsification of the card is prohibited and punishable by sanctions, including disciplinary measures.

When and where can I get my student card?
When I complete my initial administrative registration at the University of Montpellier, the registrar's office will issue me with my student card. When I re-register, the card is 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?
First, I check with my school to see if it has been found.
I request a replacement (for a fee) on the "CMSWEB" application from my digital workspace (under the "Student Card" tab). However, if the card is defective (inactive, silent, etc.), I must present it to my school office: it may be a manufacturing defect. In this case, it will be replaced free of charge.

The Scol'Pass is an A4 document containing three school certificates and the registration fee receipt. The Scol'Pass is issued upon completion of my registration, provided my application is complete.

The Scol'Pass is not the only way to obtain a school certificate. If your registration is up to date, I can access it via my computer account (ENT), (tab "My file" – Section "Registrations").

How can I obtain my certificate of enrollment and/or receipt of fees paid?
I will be able to download my certificate of enrollment and/or receipt of fees paid from my ENT (under the "My file" tab – "Enrollment" section) once I have submitted my supporting documents (via the "PJ web" application). and once the registration department has validated them.

How do I activate my UM (ENT) computer account?
Once I have registered, I will receive a personal clickable link at the personal email address I provided during registration.
This link is valid for a limited time, so it is advisable not to wait to proceed with this validation.

Important: You must activate your computer account to access the "PJWEB" application, which will allow me to submit the required supporting documents in order to complete my administrative registration.

I haven't received the activation email for my computer account, or the link I received has expired. What should I do? I click on "Connection problem" on the first page of the ENT and follow the instructions.

I can't log in to my computer account. What should I do?
I click on "Login problem" on the first page of the ENT and follow the instructions.

Where can I find my UM (ENT) computer account?
You can access your ENT account on the UM website, in the left-hand column under "Direct Access," then the "Platform" tab, ENT.
