AEFE scholarships are available to children of French families residing abroad. They are offered by local commissions established at diplomatic or consular posts and awarded after the advice of a national commission appointed by the AEFE director. To be eligible, children must be of French nationality and registered, or in the process of registering, at the French consulate, and attend a recognized French education institution while residing with their family in the country where the school is located. For more details, consult AEFE resources and the French consulate in Chile. Use of AEFE scholarships includes school insurance, transport, and meals. In Vitacura, the school arranges insurance through Clínica Alemana; in Chamisero, through Clínica Las Condes, with families covering any difference if the scholarship does not cover 100%. Transport and meals benefits are issued monthly: transport requires monthly payments for the chosen service and reimbursement procedures; school transport may authorize direct reimbursement to the transporter via a power of attorney; public transport uses Bip-enabled services (Transantiago and Metro). Meals are provided as monthly lunch tickets proportional to class days; tickets are distributed by Vie Escolar for Vitacura and by the elementary school secretary for Chamisero.
