Applying to Académie Charpentier: your questions
How can Dimensions France help me get into Académie Charpentier?
We start from your profile: your grades, your degree, your budget and what you want to do after your studies. Then we build the application with you, so that it is as strong as it can be: we work on your CV and statement of purpose, check every document the school asks for, and submit the file on time. We then follow the application with Académie Charpentier and tell you what the school asks for next. If the school invites you to an interview, we prepare you for it. Académie Charpentier makes the final decision, and admission is never guaranteed.
What does a strong application to Académie Charpentier need?
Three things carry most of the weight: your academic record, a statement of purpose that explains why this programme at Académie Charpentier fits your studies so far and your plans, and proof of your level in the teaching language. Private schools such as Académie Charpentier usually add an interview. We read your file the way an admissions team would, tell you honestly where it is weak, and help you fix what can be fixed before it is sent.
When should I apply to Académie Charpentier?
Académie Charpentier sets its own dates for each intake, and popular programmes can fill before the final deadline. Applying early gives you more choice and leaves time for your student visa.
What does it cost to apply to Académie Charpentier with Dimensions France?
One fee of €250 covers your whole admissions file: up to 7 public universities, up to 3 partner schools and any number of top schools. It is paid in full when you start and is not refundable. Tuition and any application fee charged by Académie Charpentier are paid to the school and are separate.
