There are different categories of students at the École Normale Supérieure Paris-Saclay.

Normaliens élèves

These are the civil servant interns who are recruited by competitive exam after at least two years of higher education study (generally after two years of preparation classes for the “grandes écoles”).
They are paid while they study at ENS Paris-Saclay, and as a result are committed to ten years of work, i.e. they have to work in the French Civil Service for a 10 year period in exchange for their studies being paid.
Registration for the ENS Paris-Saclay Degree is mandatory for normalien élèves.

Normaliens étudiants

These students are following the same course as the élèves, but they do not have the status of civil servant intern.
They are recruited by the departments and generally, they are selected by application and interview.
Normaliens étudiants are unpaid, and consequently are not required to commit to 10 years’ work.
Registration for the ENS Paris-Saclay Degree is mandatory for normalien étudiants.

Normaliens accepted as foreign students

These students are normaliens who are accepted on a foreign basis to the ENS Paris-Saclay competitive entrance exam.
Normaliens accepted as foreign students receive a grant during their education for an predetermined period of time.

Students

These students are not registered for the ENS Paris-Saclay Degree, but are generally registered for the School’s Masters year 1 or 2.

Further education interns

These are public and private sector employees from industry and economic sectors, job-seekers and teachers in post. Professional training courses which are specifically adapted to their needs are made available.

If you have been accepted via the competitive exam, you are a paid civil servant intern, and as a result, a normalien élève within ENS Paris-Saclay.

Please note: if you were receiving a grant for social reasons, you will lose your status as a grant holder (as you cannot receive a grant and be paid a salary at the same time).
