💡Parcoursup

Parcoursup is a French online platform for higher education applications, mentioned in the script as the system through which students submit their applications and receive admission offers. It is central to the video's theme as it outlines the process and timeline for receiving and responding to admission offers.

💡Admission Offers

Admission offers are formal proposals from educational institutions to prospective students, granting them a place in a specific study program. In the context of the video, these offers are received through the Parcoursup platform and students must respond to them within specified deadlines.

💡Deadlines

Deadlines are specific dates or times by which an action must be completed. In the video, deadlines are crucial as they dictate when students must respond to admission offers and make decisions about their higher education choices.

💡Waiting Lists

Waiting lists are lists of candidates who have not yet been admitted but are in line for a place should one become available. In the context of the video, students can be on a 'liste d'attente' (waiting list) and their position may change daily as places are freed up.

Notifications are alerts or messages sent to inform recipients of new or important information. In the video, notifications are sent to students when they receive an admission offer, ensuring they are aware of their application status.

💡Definitive Acceptance

Definitive acceptance is the final act of agreeing to an offer or proposal. In the context of the video, students must definitively accept an admission offer to secure their place in a program, which then affects the waiting lists of other programs.

💡Administrative Registration

Administrative registration refers to the formal process of enrolling in an educational institution, which includes completing necessary paperwork and fulfilling legal requirements. In the video, it is mentioned as the next step after accepting an admission offer.

💡FAQ and Tutorials

Highlights

Starting from June 1st, you will receive responses from the training programs for the wishes you have expressed on Parcoursup.

Between June 2nd and July 6th, your file will be updated daily based on the evolution of waiting lists.

You may receive one or several admission proposals until July 6th.

You cannot accept multiple admission proposals simultaneously; you must make a choice to free up places for other candidates.

When you accept an admission proposal, you can still keep the wishes you are more interested in on hold.

For each of your wishes, the training program may respond positively, indicating acceptance.

If you are accepted by a training program, you must respond to the admission proposal before the deadline indicated in your file.

For a wish in a license program, it is also an admission proposal.

If you do not accept an admission proposal, you will follow a personalized support plan integrated into your training to strengthen certain skills and help you succeed.

If you have not yet received an admission proposal, your position in the waiting list is indicated in your file and will evolve daily based on the places that become available.

For a selective training program, if the training has not retained your file, you have the opportunity to contact the training program to know the reasons for this decision.

Parcoursup explains the procedure to follow in your file by clicking on the 'notification of refusal' button next to the wish.

As soon as you receive an admission proposal, an alert is sent the next morning to your personal messaging on your Parcoursup mobile app and SMS if you have provided their contact details.

To ensure you receive alerts on your phone, check the mobile number you have provided in your Parcoursup file.

For an admission proposal received between June 1st and 2nd, you have until June 4th to respond.

For an admission proposal received on June 3rd, you have until June 5th to respond.

Starting from June 4th, you have two days to respond to an admission proposal, for example, if you receive an admission proposal on June 5th, you must respond before June 6th at 23:59.

The last admission proposals of the main phase are sent on July 6th.

If you have several admission proposals with different deadlines, you must respond to each of them respecting the indicated deadline.

If you do not respond to a proposal before the deadline shown in your file, it will be sent to another candidate, and you will receive a message the next day asking you to specify the wishes you wish to keep within a maximum of three days.

This means that you are no longer interested in the training programs proposed on Parcoursup; your wishes in waiting will be considered as abandoned.

When you accept an admission proposal, you do not lose your wishes in waiting; the platform asks you to indicate what you wish to maintain.

Keep only the wishes in waiting that interest you more than the accepted proposal, and if you receive an admission proposal for your favorite training and accept it definitively, you give up your other wishes.

This action causes the waiting lists of the training programs to evolve when you have accepted a definitive admission proposal.

Consult the administrative registration procedures indicated by the institution you have chosen.

If you are on the waiting list as of June 1st, do not worry; for the most part, this situation will evolve rapidly for each wish in waiting.

Indicators are updated daily in your file, helping you track the evolution of your situation based on the places freed by other candidates.

Starting from June 30th, if you still have wishes in waiting, you must rank them by order of preference.

You must perform this action before July 3rd; if you are concerned, you will receive reminders by email and SMS from Parcoursup to inform you.

This mandatory action will help speed up the waiting lists and redistribute the available places more quickly before the end of the admission phase.

All our services and academies are mobilized to accompany you and ensure the follow-up of your file during the admission phase.

If you have questions, you can consult the FAQ and video tutorials on Parcoursup.fr.

You can also contact an advisor via your Parcoursup messaging or the green number 0 800 400 070 which will be exceptionally open the weekend of June 3rd and 4th.
