Social Assistance

Fonds de Solidarité et de Développement des Initiatives Etudiantes (FSDIE)

The Fond de Solidarité et de Développement des Initiatives Étudiantes (Solidarity and Development Fund for Student Initiatives) facilitates the implementation of a genuine institutional policy in the area of student life.

FSDIE is financed through a portion of The Contribution Vie Etudiante et de Campus - CVEC (student life and campus contribution). This contribution, established by the 'Orientation and Success of Students' law, is 'intended to promote the social, health, cultural, and sports reception and support of students, and to strengthen preventive actions and health education conducted on their behalf' (article L. 841-5 of the code de l'éducation (education code)). The initiatives funded by the CVEC are partially coordinated with Toulouse Capitole University (e.g., sports activities).

The FSDIE is overseen by a committee, established after approval by the Board of Directors on December 19, 2023 (n°CA 2023-103). This committee meets in two different groups, depending on whether it's discussing social assistance or supporting student initiatives. The allocation of the budget for this fund is decided by the plenary committee at the beginning of the year and confirmed by TSE director. In accordance with current regulations, funds are distributed with the goal of limiting the portion designated for social assistance to a maximum of 30% of the FSDIE, while ensuring continued support for student initiatives.

The committee's decisions are taken by the deliberative committee, half of whom are TSE students.

Social assistance

The 'social aid' section of the FSDIE aims to offer one-time financial support to TSE students, considering specific criteria. It is not intended to replace existing CROUS assistance programs.

Criteria

  • Assistance is available to students enrolled in initial training, without any age restrictions or nationality requirements, regardless of whether they receive grants based on social criteria or not.
  • It is intended for people with serious difficulties. The student's social and financial situation is examined beforehand.
  • Students currently under disciplinary sanction at the time of application are not eligible for the program.

Composition of FSDIE social aid applications

  • Application form fully completed, dated, and signed.
  • Letter detailing the individual training project and the situation encountered.
  • Bank details (RIB).

Forms are available and must be submitted to the TSE Student Reception Office (Office T035, ground floor of the TSE building, 1 Esplanade de l'Université) at least 8 days before the committee meeting date.

Applications are evaluated by social services assistants from SIMPPS (Centre SIMPPS centre-ville Université Toulouse Capitole). ANY APPLICATION THAT HAS NOT BEEN PREVIOUSLY REVIEWED BY A SOCIAL SERVICES ASSISTANT WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. Students are invited to contact SIMPPS (secretary's office: 05 61 63 63 37 25) to make an appointment for social evaluation as soon as possible.
