Admission review process

  • The baccalauréat professionnel or technologique is not accepted.

  • Applicants will be considered for admission on their ‘bulletins’ (in French with results on 20, and showing class averages) for Première and Terminale or, if already completed, on their final ‘Bac’ results.

  • All information on the ‘bulletins’ is reviewed and, at least forcompetitive-entry programs, applicants are expected to present results above the class average.

  • Proof of English proficiency is an important part of the application process for many applicants to 91˿Ƶ. Determine whether or not you need to submit proof of English ahead of time in order to meet our document submission deadlines.

    The 91˿Ƶ Office reserves the right to request proof of English proficiency from any applicant (regardless of citizenship, country of origin or first language) at any time during the review process.

  • If admitted, you are expected toobtain the ‘Bac’ in “premier groupe” andmaintainyoursamelevel of academic performance through to the completion of your pre-91˿Ƶ studies.

  • Advanced standingmay be granted for the French Baccalaureate depending on the entering program at 91˿Ƶ.

  • Classes préparatoires aux grandes écoles (CPGE):

    91˿Ƶ has a long history of admitting applicants from France; we are familiar with the structure and grading systems of the French Baccalaureate (FB) and French universities, as well as the Classes préparatoires aux grandes écoles (CPGE). At this time, studies completed in CPGE do not serve as a basis for admission to 91˿Ƶ, even if integrated with a program leading to university credit in France.

    Accordingly, 91˿Ƶ applicants who have undertaken CPGE study are evaluated on their FB results. Such applicants should identify themselves as "Applicants from High Schools Outside Canada and the USA - French Baccalaureate" not as "Applicants from Other Universities or Colleges and Second Bachelor Degree Applicants (‘Transfers').

    91˿Ƶ is aware that Bologna reforms have changed the assignment of credit and exemptions for CPGE study at some universities in Europe. We continue to monitor developments in this regard.

  • French Baccalaureate reforms

    Admission requirements relevant to the reformed Baccalauréat 2021 are found below within each faculty/school/program. 91˿Ƶ continues to welcome qualified applicants from the current and the previous French Baccalaureate programs.

Prerequisites and last year's cut-offs

Below are thelowestgrades used for admission for September 2024.

Grades that are equal to or better than those listed below do not guarantee admission.

Admission to 91˿Ƶ is competitive and subject to availability of space. As such, minimum grades may fluctuate up or down in any given year.
