Students with temporary or permanent disabilities

Sciences Po is committed to welcoming and integrating students with temporary and permanent disabilities. This commitment is based on a strong sense of responsibility as well as compliance with its legal obligations according to the Law of 11 February 2005.

The institution grants a full tuition fee waiver to students with disabilities recognised by the Disability Rights Commission (CDAPH) or mentioned in article L5212-13 of the Labour Code (fr.). 

The fee waiver may apply upon presentation of a certificate of recognition as a disabled worker (RQTH) issued by the Departmental Centre for Disabled People or MDPH. This certificate must be uploaded to the student space by 31 August 2026 at the latest.

This full tuition fee waiver applies to eligible students enrolled in Bachelor's or Master's degree. Students admitted to a one-year Master's programme are not eligible for this waiver. Sciences Po awards partial tuition fee waivers to a select number of outstanding students from one-year Master's programmes. Please contact the person in charge of the programme for further information about applying for this partial tuition fee waiver.

For more information, see the orientation page for disabled Sciences Po students.
