Service Universitaire des Activités Physiques et Sportives (SUAPS)
Support for top-level athletes
Updated on: 10/06/2026
The SUAPS supports students at the University of Le Havre Normandie involved in high-level sports (interregional, national or international), helping them to reconcile their academic career with their sporting requirements.
High-level or good-level athlete status allows students to benefit, depending on their programme and after their situation has been reviewed, from personalised arrangements such as:
- adjustments to their timetable or studies,
- authorised absences,
- dedicated tutoring hours.
SUAPS acts as a link between the university’s teaching and administrative departments and the clubs or training sections, including those offered by SUAPS, with which students are affiliated.
For any request for high-level or good-level athlete status, please complete this form.
Ms Guénaelle Duboc, Director of SUAPS, is also available to answer any questions by email at: suaps@univ-lehavre.fr
