key documents commonly required when applying for a Master’s program at the University of Lorraine (for non-EU students; EU processes are similar):

1. Completed Online Application Form

You must submit the official application via the eCandidat platform (or Campus?France / MonMaster if you're a non-EU applicant). This form captures your personal details, educational background, and program selections 

2. Official Academic Transcripts and Degree Certificates

Provide certified copies of your Bachelor’s degree and academic transcripts. If applying to Master?2 (M2), include proof of having completed 240 ECTS credits (i.e. 4 years of study) in a relevant field 

3. Proof of Language Proficiency

For English?taught programs, you usually need to submit official scores like IELTS, TOEFL, or C1/C2 certificate, depending on program requirements. If a program is taught in French, then proof of French proficiency (often B2 level) is required

4. CV (Résumé) and Motivation Letter

A resume summarizing your academic and professional experience, along with a tailored motivation letter that explains why you’re applying, your goals, and how you fit the program’s focus 

5. Two Letters of Recommendation

Typically from academic or professional contacts who can attest to your skills, background, and potential for Master?level study—this is standard across most programs 

6. Passport, Visa Documentation & Financial Declaration
