What if you had the choice not to wait for your Parcoursup results?
As every year, January marks the start of a stressful period for all future baccalaureate students: it is the beginning of applications on Parcoursup.
A quick reminder for those not yet very familiar with Parcoursup: it is the online platform that allows you to apply to different schools to continue your studies after the baccalaureate. But beware: not all schools are necessarily on Parcoursup! Digital Campus is one such example.
Why is Digital Campus not on Parcoursup?
Institutions have a choice: to be present on Parcoursup or not.
If the institution is on Parcoursup, the school has no say in the selection of students. Parcoursup will provide it with a list of students who will join a programme outside Parcoursup at the start of the academic year.
If the institution is not on Parcoursup, the school can organise its own admissions session and therefore select its students to ensure that:
- The student is motivated,
- The programme the school offers is suited to the student's professional goals.
At Digital Campus, we have chosen an independent admissions process outside Parcoursup for the reasons mentioned above.
