How Parcoursup works

Subscribe to

Parcoursup is open to future baccalaureate holders since December 20 and will close on April 6. To register, it is necessary to provide a valid email address which can be that of the parents or the main teacher.

High school students who wish to register for the first year must have their INE (Identifiant National Élève) number and a valid email address. With this number, some data is pre-filled, which simplifies the process. However, do not hesitate to correct any errors.

Choosing your school

To select the programs that interest you, you must log in to your file and click on the Add a wish button to access the program search engine.

Once you have reached the wish list stage, you will need to provide a detailed explanation in the “reasoned educational plan” section. This is a cover letter that admissions officers will have access to when reviewing your application.

Once you have entered all the information, click on “I save”.
