Admission to the Master's Program
Admission to the Master’s program is governed by the executive orders and implementing decrees issued pursuant to the law of December 23, 2016.
Admission Requirements for 2026–2027
In accordance with the decree of February 20, 2023, a single national platform for applications and admissions to the first year of master’s programs is being established. All applications must be submitted through MonMaster, except in cases and for programs for which exceptions are provided by administrative order. For more information, visit MonMaster.gouv.fr
Effective February 17, 2026, if you hold (or are working toward) a national bachelor’s degree or another degree that qualifies you for a master’s program, you must apply through the national platform MonMaster.gouv.fr.
Admission is based on an application review upon entry into the master's program.
- Review the general criteria for evaluating applications, as well as the enrollment capacity for the first year of the master’s program and the limited capacity available for applications submitted through the online application process (the “Mon Master” portal), along with the admission requirements and procedures approved by the University’s Board of Trustees on November 17, 2025.
- Review the administrative criteria for rejecting applications for the first year of the national master’s degree program for the 2026–2027 academic year: Board of Trustees Resolution of November 17, 2025: Approval of the mandatory and optional components of the application and admissions package for the assignment of a ranking or the rejection of “Mon Master” applications.
- Review the general criteria for evaluating applications to the “Teaching and Education” master’s programs, as well as the enrollment capacity, limited available spots, and admission requirements for applicants who did not pass the competitive entrance exam, as approved by the University’s Board of Trustees on February 2, 2026.
- Review the administrative criteria for rejecting applications to the “Teaching and Education” master’s program for the 2026–2027 academic year: Board of Trustees Resolution of February 2, 2026: Approval of the mandatory and optional components of the application and admissions package for the purpose of assigning a ranking or rejecting “Mon Master” applications.
The Mon Master platform displays two “salaried employment rates in France” for each program at 6 and 18 months. These two rates, known as “INSERSUP” rates, exclude graduates working in the self-employed sector, business owners, artisans, or those working abroad.These rates therefore do not reflect the reality of professional integration. Furthermore, some Mon Master programs do not display INSERSUP rates because, since the employment rate in France effectively excludes many graduates who are already employed, the threshold for statistical reliability is no longer met.
To obtaincompletely reliable informationcoveringall graduates who entered the job market directly without continuing their studies, we recommend visiting the website of the University of Montpellier’s Observatory for Student Tracking and Professional Integration (OSIPE). These employment rates are calculated at the 30-month mark (number of graduates in employment / number of graduates in employment or seeking employment). This data is collected by the OSIPE (Observatory for Student Monitoring and Career Integration).
