Useful tips
- Apply as early as possible: Do not wait until the very last day to submit your application. Admission decisions are announced on a rolling basis, so the earlier you submit your application, the sooner you will be notified of Sciences Po's decision (except for dual degrees and the joint Master of Journalism and International Affairs, for which decisions are published 2 to 3 months after the deadline of the selected programme).
- Anticipate: Before you start your application, make sure to gather all the information required, for example: request official documents, choose and contact your referees, take your language tests and check your visa status.
