Understanding the process

The request for a grant for a student who is in an independent household should be addressed to the Department of Education, Youth and Sport until 2pm on the last Friday of September.

Students are considered to be in an independent household: students who are no longer attached to their parental home and whose main residence, other than housing occupied solely for study purposes, constitutes an independent household and they are an apprentice or an employee working for more than 15 hours per week, or if they are married to an apprentice or an employee working more than 15 hours per week. If these conditions are not met, the applicant is linked to their parents’ household or, in the event that their parents are separated, to the parental household of their choice.

Applications are processed in date order of registration, provided that the documents provided can be evaluated.

The application may be sent incomplete at first, but all documents must be submitted to finalise the processing of the application.

The missing documents must be provided before 2.00 pm on the last Friday of March of the academic year corresponding to the studies. Any application that is not complete after this date will be cancelled. No payment will be made.

Monegasque applicants can benefit from a greater contribution towards tuition fees for diploma courses run by top-flight educational establishments, a list of which has been drawn up by Ministerial Decree.

In principle, for these establishments, the State now determines the amount of the study grant awarded based on actual tuition fees, with a percentage of the fees covered ranging from 40% to 100%, depending on the family quotient of the candidate's household.
