## Pricing

from $1.40 / 1,000 programs

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## France Parcoursup Programs – Access Rates, Places, Profiles

Get **every higher-education program on Parcoursup** (the French national admission platform) from the **official Ministry of Higher Education data** for the latest session: about **14,000 programs** (BTS, BUT, licences, CPGE, engineering and business schools, nursing schools…).

For each program: **places, number of applications, offers made, access rate, last rank called**, and the **profile of admitted students** (general, technological or vocational bac, honours, scholarship holders, women, same academy), plus the institution, city, GPS and the link to the official Parcoursup page.

### Who is it for?

- **Guidance counsellors, tutoring and coaching businesses**: compare programs and show students their real chances.
- **EdTech and student apps**: import official admission statistics for every program.
- **Schools and universities**: benchmark your programs against competitors in your region.
- **Journalists and researchers**: rank programs by selectivity or demand.

### What data do you get?

| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| `id`, `session`, `program`, `programType`, `degree`, `details` | 10, 2025, Polytech Dijon - Formation d'ingénieur… |
| `institution`, `uai`, `sector` | institution, official code, public or private |
| `city`, `department`, `region`, `academy`, `latitude`, `longitude` | location |
| `selective`, `places`, `applications`, `offersMade`, `admitted` | demand and supply |
| `accessRatePct` | share of applicants who received an offer |
| `lastRankCalled` | rank of the last applicant called, per group |
| `admittedProfile` | bac type, honours (AB, B, TB), scholarship, women, same academy (%) |
| `admittedWhenPct` | share admitted at phase start, by bac results, by phase end |
| `parcoursupUrl` | official Parcoursup page of the program |

### How to use

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
