To fight against “frauds” in lucrative private higher education, a new system was announced by the Minister of National Education, Elisabeth Borne, and her Minister responsible for higher education and research, Philippe Baptiste, Friday January 10 in the evening, by communication channel.

From January 15 and until March 13, some 600,000 future high school graduates will express their career wishes on the Parcoursup higher education admissions platform. The ministers thus display their intention to “strengthen control of training on Parcoursup”.

Objective: exclude establishments from the platform “deceptive or fraudulent commercial practices”. The ministers do not specify on what legal basis this new system will be based, but according to Les Echos the government will publish a decree which will apply before the deadline for formulating wishes on the platform, March 13. The procedure provides “a prior formal notice” of the establishment at the end of which the minister responsible for higher education may pronounce the delisting of the training concerned.
