Candidates - Admissions

Do I have to wait until I have all my documents before validating my application?

It is preferrable to submit an application that is as complete as possible.

If you are waiting for documents (for instance transcripts, letters of recommendation, an internship approval, grades after an English assessment, your resume in a second language, etc.), you can submit your application and attach missing documents later.

Please note that you have one month to complete your application. After this period, your file will be deleted from the database and you will have to create a new application.

I would like to apply to several training programs at the same time. Is it possible?

When you submit your online application, you have the possibility to select up to three training choices.

Your first two choices are the most important. They may change during the course of your application and as a result of our exchanges and contacts with companies. Please remember to justify your choices and their order of preference in your cover letter.

Please note that if you are applying for our Advanced-master degree - Mastère Spécialisé at the same time, you will need to create another application via the corresponding link:

Are there training programs open to students who are not graduates from an engineering school?

All IFP School’s programs are open to graduates with four or five years of higher education. When you are about to apply, make sure that your background corresponds to the program you wish to follow.

Depending on your initial training and status, the School issues:

  • the Specialized Engineering Graduate Degree, recognized by the French Commission des titres d’ingénieur (CTI),
  • a Master’s degree (equivalent in France to the Diploma of Applied Advanced Studies -DESA) (this typically concerns international profiles).
