Incoming students

°Conditions

Incoming students can apply for the third year of a Bachelor's degree, for the first year of a Master's degree or for a research stay as part of their PhD.

If you wish to spend a semester at erg as an international / Erasmus student, please contact your school’s Erasmus coordinator to ensure there is an agreement between erg and your institution.

WARNING: given the annual development of the artistic courses and their progression in the second semester towards a refinement of the personal project, it is not recommended to apply for the second semester only.

Application Documents

Nomination Form

Incoming candidates must also send us a portfolio in pdf format.

Please be noted that the deadline is 01.05.2023 for the Fall semester and 15.11.2023 for Spring semester.

This portfolio, together with the artistic statement provided in the application form, will be used to evaluate the application and decide whether or not to accept it.

- For non-French speaking students: CEFR level B1 is recommended as most of our courses are taught in French

- please note that as the number of applications often exceeds the number of available study places, we might not be able to accept all applicants. The selection of students is based on the relevance of their applications and the artistic statement and portfolio.

°Plan of studies

°°Masters / Plan of studies

Incoming students will find here all the courses available at erg (compulsory and elective) for the second and third year of the Bachelor cycle as well as the first year of the Master cycle. Incoming mobility is not allowed in the first year of the Bachelor cycle and in the second year of the Master cycle, the latter being devoted to the finalization of the student's personal project and the preparation of his/her final thesis.

Attention: artistic courses are annual. It is therefore advisable to divide by two the ECTS value indicated in order to obtain the corresponding number of credits for a quadrimester. The general courses are quadrimester courses. Their ECTS value therefore does not change.

° Learning Agreement

°Special needs

You are (future) Erasmus student at the Erg in a situation of disability, disabling illness or learning disabilities?

Erg can offer you a support plan adapted to your profile and to the specific difficulties you are likely to encounter during your studies at the Erg.

Erg is careful to offer you an individualized plan that makes it possible to offer everyone an inclusive higher education, i.e. an education that implements measures aimed at removing or reducing the material, pedagogical, cultural, social and psychological barriers encountered in accessing studies, during studies and in the socio-professional integration of the students who benefit from it. In concrete terms, any medical situation can be taken into account for the granting of the status of student beneficiary of the provisions of the decree on inclusive higher education. This plan may include reasonable accommodation of various kinds:

- Pedagogical (adapted course materials and course notes, course load, monitoring of teaching, acquisition of a learning method, adapted assessments, etc.),

- Material (access to premises, practical and artistic courses, etc.),

- Medical (access to healthcare, etc.),

- Social and cultural (relationship with others, environment, etc.)

- Psychological (assessment, intervention, etc.).

This plan may also include the possibility that another student from the Erg may be trained in order to invest in your individualized support plan to accompany you.
