Useful tips
- 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 for the Masters of the Journalism school : joint Master of Journalism and International Affairs and Master in journalism.)
- 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.
