| The American University of Paris welcomes applications on a
continuous basis throughout the year. Completed applications are reviewed in
rounds. Priority for admission and scholarship consideration is given in
earlier rounds, so you are encouraged to submit your completed application
early. It is also important that non-EU students apply early, accounting for
the time it takes to obtain a visa. Completed applications will receive an
admission decision within three weeks. |

The admissions process is designed to review the overall
potential of applicants in order to determine which
students are most likely to succeed in their studies and
in their careers. Decisions are not based on one single
indicator, but on the combination of all relevant
elements as well as on the consistency of the
application as a whole. |
