The Eiffel Excellence Scholarship Program was established by the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs to enable French higher education institutions to attract top international students from developing countries for Master's and PhD programs. In 2026, it remains one of Europe's most prestigious awards. For Master's level, it provides a monthly allowance of €1,181, and for PhD level, it provides €1,800 per month. Additionally, it covers international airfare, health insurance, and cultural activities. Like the Vanier scholarship, students cannot apply directly. You must find a French university that is willing to nominate you. The scholarship is a major tool for France to attract future foreign decision-makers in the private and public sectors.
