Transfer admissions allow holders of certain qualifications or degreesto enter directly into the second or third year of one of the four health science programs in France (Medicine, Midwifery, Dentistry, Pharmacy), without having to complete the first year of health science studies or take the MMOP entrance exams.

Applicants may indicate whether they wish to be admitted to the second or third year, but the admissions committee has the final say and will place admitted applicants in one of the two years.

You may not applyto multiple institutionsand/orprograms inthe same year.

The right to apply for a transfer admission is limited: no one may make more than two attempts.
