Final year students will then have until March 13 to make ten wishes maximum, and finalize their file until April 2.

Some new features

With around 24,000 training courses offered, a figure close to last year, the portal displays new features designed for greater clarity. First of all, an “identity card” for each training course will specify the status of the establishment (public, private under contract or without contract), the selective nature or not of the training, the number of places available and eligibility. to stock exchanges.

Depending on the specialties and a given average, high school students will also be able to get an idea of ​​their chances of accessing training: “rare”, “occasionally”, “regularly”, “more than 50%” etc.

Vignettes will give figures on the profiles of high school students who joined each course during the previous three years.

Parcoursup, launched in 2018, will also include new data in 2025 on professional integration rates and continued studies.

Main admission phase from June 2

The main admission phase will begin on June 2 and the classification of pending wishes will take place between June 6 and 10.

A complementary phase of formulating additional wishes with regard to the places still available will then open on June 11, before the start of registrations on July 4, after the publication of the baccalaureate results.

Last year, around 945,000 applications were submitted to Parcoursup, according to the Ministry of Higher Education and Research.

Academic pressure?

Some students accuse the procedure of accentuating selection and academic pressure, a demand raised in particular by high school students during school blockades in recent weeks, mainly in Paris.

The Parcoursup site, conversely, ensures that it is limited to the “transmission of applications” and “taking into account legal priorities”, such as the “rate of scholarship holders decided by the rectors for each training”, but emphasizes that these are “ teachers of higher education establishments who organize vows examination committees.”
