Do I need to apply immediately or can I wait after seeing the universities?

You do not need to apply immediately, but it’s important to start shortlisting universities and preparing your documents now.

Most French universities for the January 2027 intake open applications around September 2026, with deadlines typically between October and December 2026. This gives you some time to research and decide, but applying earlier increases your chances and gives you more options.
