Admission procedure

Whatever your background, 42 Nice is open to all. No diploma or prior knowledge of code required!

The Steps

The procedure

At 42 Nice, the admissions process is nothing like at any other school, college or university. Here, you don’t have to submit an academic record or CV, or sit an entrance exam. Whatever your past experience, we’ll take into account your motivation to learn, your curiosity and your perseverance, not your qualifications. Our procedure is designed to detect your talent. It’s our way of giving everyone the chance to try their luck and get into 42 Nice. The only condition is that you must be 18 years old on the first day of the piscine.

Check-In

Once the tests have been validated (response within 2-3 days), you’ll be invited to a Check-in, either in person or online. This essential step enables you to choose your Piscine.

If the Check-in takes place in person, you can be accompanied. If it takes place online, it’s essential to stay until the end to register.

The date of your Check-in is indicated on your candidate space.

The Piscine

The Piscine isn’t about swimming, it’s about immersing yourself in the world of coding during a whole month. It is the final step in identifying candidates who are motivated and suited to 42 Nice’s pedagogy.
