The board of directors of Le Mans University "denounces" this Wednesday, November 28, the decision of the government to increase tuition fees for extra-community students.

In a statement issued Wednesday, November 28, the board of directors of the University of Le Mans has "strongly denounce" the decision of the government to increase tuition fees for students outside the community, which increase to € 2,770 in license instead of € 170 and € 3,770 in master and doctorate instead of € 243 and € 380 respectively.

"Contrary to the radiation of France"

This provision, said Le Mans University, "taken by the government at the highest level, without any consultation, will generate unbearable social and discriminatory inequalities, contrary to the principle of welcoming France and the academic principles of the French university" .

These prohibitive tuition fees will have the consequence of "excluding from our universities many students from the poorest regions of the world and, more generally, the less fortunate students, who will have to give up their training projects in France" .

The Board of Directors of the University of Le Mans "calls on the entire university community to oppose this unfair measure, contrary to the influence of France, the interests of our universities and our country, and which foreshadow the end of public service higher education and research ".
