Applications are now live for the Principality’s study and social promotion grants for the 2025–2026 academic year. With strict deadlines ahead, candidates are encouraged to prepare their submissions without delay.

Every year, the Department of National Education, Youth and Sports supports students and professionals in Monaco with financial assistance designed to ease the cost of studies. These grants are more than just financial support; they are a pathway for young people to pursue higher education and for adults to retrain, refine skills, and invest in lifelong learning.

Applications for study grants must be submitted before 2 pm on Friday 26th September 2025, while social promotion grants must be requested before the start date of the chosen training course.

Who can apply?

Eligibility spans a broad spectrum of Monaco’s community. Applicants may qualify if they are of Monegasque nationality, the spouse of a Monegasque, or a foreign national dependent on a Monegasque citizen. Other categories include dependents or orphans of State or Commune agents, staff of public establishments or French services established in the Principality by treaty, as well as foreign residents with at least 10 uninterrupted years of residence in Monaco.

Age requirements also apply: candidates for study grants must be under 28 as of 31st December 2025, while applicants for social promotion grants must be under 50 at the time of filing their dossier.

Simple steps to apply

Applications can be submitted quickly and securely online via MonGuichet.mc, under the Education or Employment sections. For those without digital access, paper forms remain available from the Department of National Education, Youth and Sports at 5, promenade Honoré II, or by request via denjs@gouv.mc.
