France to Replace Parcoursup with AI-Driven Admissions Platform in 2028

On October 26, 2026, the French government declared its intention to phase out Parcoursup, the current admissions platform, and introduce a new AI-guided system for the 2028 admissions cycle.

Until the new system is fully implemented, changes to Parcoursup will be introduced for the 2027 campaign. These changes include a reduction in the number of required motivation letters and the implementation of justified refusals.

This transition aims to streamline the admissions process and enhance the overall efficiency of university admissions in France.
