The UdeM exemption scholarship program is designed to support international candidates in their university studies. Since the fall of 2020, it is possible to benefit from an exemption from the tuition fees normally charged to international students.
The goal of this program is to help the best talent from all countries attend one of the finest francophone research universities in the world. In turn, these international students will help fulfil our educational mission by enriching the cultural diversity of the Université de Montréal community.
The UdeM exemption scholarship is intended for international students (except French and French-speaking Belgian students).
To be eligible, the candidate must:
- Have received an offer of admission to a study program at UdeM (as of Fall 2020)
- Not be enrolled in an independent study program or short undergraduate program as of the Winter 2024 session, e.g., certificate, major, minor, short program or preparatory year program for university studies
- Have valid study authorizations (CAQ and study permit) for all sessions of their study program
- Be continuously enrolled full time (unless absence is approved) for their entire study program
- Not benefit from another form of tuition fee exemption
If one of the above conditions is not met, the UdeM exemption scholarship may be withdrawn.
1. Apply for admission
Before completing the application form, make sure you respect the application deadlines and check the admissions requirements for the study programs of your interest.
2. Follow-up on your file and receive an offer of admission
After submitting your application, you’ll be able to consult your application and receive your admission notice in your Centre étudiant. You don’t have to apply for a UdeM Exemption Scholarship. Candidates will be evaluated to determine their eligibility and the amount of their exemption scholarship.
3. Receive the notice of award with the amount
After receiving your admissions offer, Université de Montréal will inform you by email of the amount of the scholarship to which you are entitled. Print and keep this document in a safe place. It will be useful for future reference.
