Presentation

The Diplôme d'Accès aux Études Universitaires (DAEU) enables students to return to higher education (particularly at university), acquire a diploma enabling them to sit administrative examinations requiring the baccalauréat or obtain a diploma attesting to their level of general knowledge.

The DAEU is a level IV national diploma, which confers the same rights as the baccalauréat.

Special features

The D.A.E.U. is designed for people who have interrupted their studies without having the baccalauréat.
This diploma gives people from a wide range of backgrounds the opportunity to obtain a qualification equivalent to the baccalaureate, thereby giving them the prospect of acquiring a higher education diploma and/or a career move.
The DAEU A offers predominantly literary teaching. It is recommended for further study in the fields of art, literature, languages or law.
