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.
