Coordinated admissions organized by Institut Polytechnique de Paris

This international admission program for engineering programs is intended for students enrolled in higher education programs in science, engineering, or quantitative economics and finance outside France, which are not equivalent to French preparatory classes for Grandes Écoles (CPGE).

It provides access to the engineering programs of the five schools:

• ENSAE Paris
• ENSTA
• ENPC
• Télécom Paris
• Télécom SudParis

Two coordinated admission procedures are organized: one for free-mover applicants, and the other for students enrolled at an institution that has a double-degree agreement with one or more of the engineering schools listed above.

Admission requirements

• Applicants must be enrolled in a foreign, non-French program at a higher education institution outside France.
• Applicants must have completed their fourth year of higher education at their home university in order to qualify for final admission (Master’s degree or fourth year of a four-year Bachelor’s program).
• Excellent training in mathematics and/or physics is essential for admission.
• Applicants must not have attended a preparatory program for an engineering degree at a school in France, particularly a scientific preparatory class for Grandes Écoles (CPGE).
• Applicants must be under 27 years of age on January 1, 2027.
• French applicants are not eligible. French students must apply through the admission based on academic qualifications pathway.
• Applicants must have a minimum B2 level in French or English. Official language test results mentioned in the application must be submitted when applying.

Knowledge of French is not mandatory to apply to this admission program. All application procedures and examinations can be completed in English or French.

Admission process

The selection and admission process differs depending on the admission procedure:

→ Selection and admission process for double-degree applicants

→ Selection and admission process for free-mover applicants

In both cases, a complete application must be submitted through the Institut Polytechnique de Paris application platform.

• Eligibility decision by the schools.
• Motivation interview: a 25- to 30-minute discussion with examiners to assess your motivation for the programs you are applying to and your knowledge of the schools.
• Final admission or rejection decision.
