Are you cut out for studying sports science?

Since the start of the 2018/19 academic year, the procedures for accessing university for new high school graduates have changed. There is no longer a lottery system for admission to STAPS, but instead an examination of applicants' files. Before considering your application, you must understand that the most important thing is not to get into the UFR STAPS, but to graduate with a degree. Too many students fail in their studies because they do not understand the true nature of the courses offered at STAPS.

Below you will find a document explaining the true nature of these studies, a questionnaire to help you determine whether you are "Stapso-compatible," and a link to the OSIPE at the University of Montpellier. The Professional Integration Observatory uses highly accurate survey results to identify the jobs held by graduates, their status, income level, sector of activity, and region.
