All students can choose to be graded for their chosen sport and receive an extra 0,3 points added to their average grade each semester. 

The IUT welcomes elite athletes (in French;SHNorsportifs de haut niveau) and offers adjustments to their timetables. If they are selected by the university SHN boards, they automatically receive the extra 0,3 points.

Different statuses are available:
