A bachelor’s degree in cinema at Paris-8 University, Julie (1) in a dream. When she gets home in the early hours of June 20, she checks the post-bac registration platform before going to bed. Parcoursup. Surprise: an admission proposal awaits this training.
“I didn’t believe it, I was too happy, says the high school student at the L terminal at Bréquigny high school in Rennes. I wanted to immediately validate the proposal, but a message told me that the file was being updated ”. She reconnects the next morning. This time, she can validate the proposal.
As planned by Parcoursup, the language license it had already validated at La Sorbonne disappears from its file, in favor of this place in Paris-8. The schoolgirl still struggles to believe, because the day before, she was still classified in the 300e place on waiting list. “My friends told me that if I had succeeded in validating the wish, it was because it was good, that I should not worry. “
“Human error”
But 24 hours later, patatras. An email from Parcoursup informs him that“Human error” drove the platform “To send too many admission proposals for certain licenses from Paris-8 university”, concluding with ” sincere apologies “. His proposal was withdrawn and his wish returned to the waiting list in the place he occupied on June 19. “I’m not complaining, because I already had another” yes “, comments Julie. But I think of those who have had just 24 hours of training and have nothing left today. It’s frustrating. “

“Not all candidates have received their vows”
Like her, 2,000 candidates, who have been watching the establishments’ responses for a month, have thus experienced a “Emotional lift”. The problem is that “Not all candidates have received their vows”, alert Annaël Lombe, treasurer of the National Union of Students (Unef). “As they thought they were being taken, some people completely suppressed their other vows, without realizing the consequences. At present, the administration has not replied to them on the procedure to be followed to recover them. They are worried. “

A similar breakdown in 2019
Last year already similar failure also attributed to “Human error”, according to the Minister of Higher Education Frédérique Vidal, had led 400 courses to accept students before placing them on the waiting list. “We ask that no student be penalized by these technical or computer problems. The ministry must provide all the guarantees, pleads Annaël Lombe. The assignment in higher education is an essential subject for the future of a high school student. “
