Admissions

Students with a French research Master’s degree or a French Diplôme d’études approfondies

You can pre-enrol from June onwards via Amethis and enrol fully from mid-July until October. We will confirm your enrolment once your application has been approved, you have submitted all the required supporting documents, and your doctoral school director has approved your enrolment.

Students with a foreign qualification equivalent to a French Master's degree, or eligible for Recognition of Prior Learning (Validation des acquis de l'expérience – VAE)

You will need to follow the exceptional admission procedure. Your doctoral school’s council must review your application and approve your enrolment. Visit your doctoral school’s website for more information about the required documents and application deadlines.
