Application Timeframe and Target Dates |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Academic schedules around the world vary, so The
American University of Paris accepts 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. |
