How to pre-enrol for JEMES Master

• First you will have to register to get an “NIA” (Student Identification Number). To do so, click on this link and follow the instructions.
• Once you have your NIA, you can pre-enrol and attach the documentation yourself via Internet. Click on this link and follow the instructions.

However, before doing so, you will need to collect and scan the above documentation.

If you do not yet have the degree because you are still completing the course, you must declare this in the “Situation of previous studies” section, indicating the number of credits passed and the total number of credits you still have to take to gain the qualification.

A paper-based form is necessary, and the students have to upload their documents themselves.
