MonMaster 2023 - wishes for further study and reorientation in master's degree and responses from institutions

This dataset is built on MonMaster data from the 2023 campaign. It presents the Master's applications as well as the admission proposals and their acceptances for each candidate training at the end of the admission process. _**/!\ An error concerning 8 institutions of the Normandy Academy has been corrected. Some columns in this dataset were modified on 22 March 2024 for the rows concerning the formations of these institutions:**_ * _** number of candidates from the same academy,** _ * _** number of ranked candidates from the same academy,** _ * _**number of candidates who received a proposal from the same academy,**_ * _** number of candidates who accepted a proposal from the same academy,** _ * _**share of candidates who accepted a proposal from the same academy**_ * * * MonMaster is the national window for applications for national master's degree training (DNM) set up by the Ministry of Higher Education and Research. The MonMaster platform is aimed at anyone who wishes to enroll in a first year of master's degree. We find mainly students enrolled in general license, but also students enrolled in professional license or students of other training in reorientation, as well as students of foreign nationality (not concerned by the system Studies in France). They must submit and confirm applications to receive a proposal for admission to a master's degree. Nominations are not prioritized and are counted by mention of DNM within an institution. A candidate can make up to 15 applications under student status at the mention level and 15 applications alternating at the mention level. Be careful, however, within a mention, a candidate can apply in several courses. Thus, the total number of applications counted by detailed training at the level of the course and teaching methods can in practice exceed 30. When applications are closed, the training managers examine the applications they have received and draw up a ranking of candidates who meet the specific expected conditions of the training. This ranking determines the order in which applications are sent to candidates. The admission phase is the period when candidates receive and accept or not the admission proposals sent by the training courses. For the 2023 session, only one admission phase was organised on the MonMaster platform: the main phase, which included a withdrawal management period. However, some training courses that did not fill their staff organised additional off-platform recruitments by reopening their eCandidat portal, they then declared on MonMaster the number of candidates recruited through this channel. For the 2023 campaign, MonMaster allowed 209,324 candidates to confirm at least one application among the 7,694 candidate courses offered. A total of 1,947,219 applications were confirmed on the platform. The data takes into account the entire campaign until 30 September 2023 for the main phase (the closing date for MonMaster admissions) and until 8 November 2023 for additional recruitments.
