High school diploma equivalent
Legally, the baccalaureate remains the first degree of higher education.
However, failing the baccalaureate does not prevent students from pursuing higher education, particularly at university.
There are two equivalents to the Baccalaureate available to you for entering higher education:
- Legal aptitude (two-year general legal training) to enter the first year of a law degree, a DUT (university technical diploma) in legal careers, or a BTS (advanced vocational training certificate) in notarial studies. The capacity in law also allows you to take civil service exams.
- The Higher Education Access Diploma The Science option (DAEU-B) puts you back on track for university studies and allows you to:
- to validate a State Diploma equivalent to the Scientific Baccalaureate
- to subsequently undertake studies in higher education, particularly in science, technology, and health: Bachelor's degree, BUT, BTS, etc.
- to take Level 4 exams
