What's new with the platform in 2025

An identity card for each course and a handy booklet

This identity card allows you to find all the characteristics of the training on a single card:

  • the status of the institution (public, private under or outside contract);
  • whether the training is selective or not;
  • the number of places available;
  • holding the Ministry of Higher Education and Research label;
  • eligibility for grants.

Please note

A handy booklet is also available this year. Entitled “The right reflexes to choose your education”, it was developed by parents and higher education stakeholders. You can find it in the “Resources” area, it offers simple tips to ask the right questions before choosing a course.

New information in the ‘Training’ sheet

This new information aims to increase the transparency of the admission process: to better understand the expectations of the training courses and to better understand the profile of the candidates admitted. They are included in 2 new headings:

  • “Understanding the criteria for analyzing applications”: you can consult the report on the examination of applications from the previous session; this report indicates: the analysis criteria used, their level of importance, precise information on the profile of the candidates admitted.
  • “Visualizing the figures for access to training”: this section allows you to consult the profile of high school students who have been able to receive proposals or who have taken part in training in the last 3 years (by type of baccalaureate, general, technological, vocational). This profile specifies the choice of course in high school (specialties) and the level of school in the final class.
More information on job opportunities

This is a major development in 2025: the platform provides new data on integration rates and further education. 75% of the courses on Parcoursup will provide data on vocational integration.

This information has until now been limited to BTS and professional licenses; it is extended to general licenses, agricultural BTS, engineering, business and management schools.

Reminder

High school students receive close support throughout the year with their school’s education teams. Tools and resources for Onisep are offered to teachers and actors of the high school to inform the students and their parents.
