Is Parcoursup down right now?
Candidates who meet a blank page at a tense hour check the Parcoursup status before they touch their file. Parcoursup down reports jump on the days wishes close and on the first evening of results, when every candidate signs in together.
A slow page in that rush is often sheer crowd weight, not a dead platform. The file, the wish list and the results screens can each lag at a different rate during the same evening.
Is Parcoursup down for me or everyone?
Open the platform on your phone network after a failed try on home Wi-Fi to test the is Parcoursup down for me question. If both crawl at the same screen, the crowd or the platform holds the fault. If the phone path flies, your home network or browser is the part to fix.
The motivation text behind each wish
Each wish asks for a short reasoned text, capped at 1500 characters, that tells the school why this course fits you. Teachers who review files read that text beside your grades and your school reports.
The editor saves as you write, but a dropped connection can eat the last lines. Draft the text in a notes app first, then paste it in and read it back before you confirm the wish.
Reading a waiting list position
A waiting answer shows your rank in the queue and the rank of the last candidate admitted in the prior round. Comparing the two tells you if your place is close to the door or still far from it.
Answering a proposal before its deadline
Each proposal carries its own answer deadline, counted in days and shown inside the file. A proposal that lapses unused points to a missed deadline in the file, not to a Parcoursup outage, so answer early and screenshot the confirmation.
The Future sheet your school adds
For school candidates, teachers add a Future sheet with grades and class council views to the file. You can read it inside your file once results open, beside the answers from the schools.
Common Parcoursup Problems and Fixes
File and login snags cause most failed visits, so check the candidate details before you blame the platform.
Check the INE on your school papers
The INE is the national student number printed on your school reports and exam papers. Type it with no spaces, and check you use your own number, not a classmate’s line from a shared sheet.
Keep a copy of every motivation text
Write each text outside the platform first and keep the files until results end. If an editor glitch eats a draft, you can paste the text back in seconds instead of writing it again.
Recover the password from the login page
The file opens with your candidate number and the password you set at creation. Use the forgotten password path and the email on the file, and check the spam folder for the reset mail.
Confirm each wish one by one
A wish counts only once you confirm it, and an unconfirmed wish never reaches the school. Walk the list at the end and check each line shows the confirmed mark.
Open the file on a computer for long texts
The phone app suits quick checks, while long texts and file reviews sit better on a big screen. The same login opens the full file on a computer browser.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Parcoursup file look incomplete?
A part of the file is missing, often an unconfirmed wish, an empty text or a detail in your profile. The file lists the missing part on its home screen, so follow that line first.
How many wishes can I send?
A candidate can send up to ten wishes, and many wishes hold sub-wishes for several schools or sites. Each wish needs its own motivation text before you can confirm it.
What does a waiting answer mean?
It means the school ranks you in its queue and offers places as earlier candidates free theirs. Your rank and the last admitted rank in the file show how the queue moves.
Can I change a wish after confirming it?
You can drop a confirmed wish, but you cannot rewrite its text once the wish phase closes. Read every text twice before the close, because schools judge the version you confirmed.
Does the app show the same results as the site?
Yes, the app mirrors your file and pushes alerts when a proposal lands. The full file and every button also stay on the site, with the same answers and deadlines.
Where do I see my waiting list rank?
Open the waiting answer inside your file to read your rank in the queue. The same screen shows the rank of the last candidate the school admitted in the past round.
