The program is open to applicants under the age of 30 as of October 1, 2026, who reside in Saint-Martin. Eligible candidates include final-year secondary school students, individuals currently enrolled in higher education, as well as those seeking to resume their studies or advance professionally.

Selected candidates will benefit from comprehensive support throughout their academic journey. This includes full coverage of one round-trip flight per year between Saint-Martin and mainland France, a monthly stipend of €808, and a one-time installation allowance of €800. Participants will also receive administrative assistance, guidance to help them adapt to studying abroad, and ongoing academic and psychological support.

In addition, the program provides assistance with professional integration upon completion of studies, helping graduates transition back into the local workforce.

In return, beneficiaries are required to commit to returning to Saint-Martin and taking up professional employment within eight months of completing their studies.
