Admission

Entry to the MoPA 3D animation school is by competitive examination. This is entirely online and distance learning. To enter the Preparatory Class, you need to have a high school diploma or equivalent. The preparatory class is not compulsory, but it does provide a solid foundation of artistic skills for further training in 3D animation. To enter the MoPA school in 1st year, you need to have passed your baccalaureate, as well as registering via ParcourSup.

MoPA's 3D animation school is open to applicants with all types of school-leaving certificate. Every year, MoPA accepts and selects students from a wide range of general and vocational backgrounds.

More than just a curriculum, the MoPA 3D animation school places great importance on the student's professional project and motivation to join the school.

The competition to join MoPA, the 3D animation school, is as follows:

1. Registration for the MoPA competition opens, and you have a fixed period in which to register and pay the competition fee.
2. Once registration is closed, you will be notified of the competition tests. They include :
- a portfolio of creative work to be created at home, based on a subject assigned by the MoPA school
- a portfolio of personal work (Book) to be sent to us.
3. Based on the results, you may be offered an interview by videoconference.

It's important to note that your drawing skills are not the first thing to be judged. The MoPA 3D animation school's selection criteria are creativity, motivation, commitment and the desire to join the animation industry. Note also that the interview is not designed to trick you! It's a chance for us to get to know you and understand your motivation for joining our school.

To enter the MoPA preparatory class, the success rate is around 50%. However, the level of selection is higher for direct entry into the 1st year of training in 3D animation: the success rate is around 20%.

You don't need to have any knowledge of 3D animation to enter the MoPA animation school in 1st year or in a preparatory class. However, you do need to have an artistic sensibility. The MoPA entrance exam includes drawing, photography and storytelling tests based on a given subject.

More than diplomas, we're interested in your ability to structure a project into a global file. The selection criteria for MoPA's 3D animation school are creativity, motivation and commitment.

The preparatory year and the first year of the Stop Motion course are accessible outside ParcourSup.

On the other hand, the first year of the 3D Animation course is accessible via ParcourSup.
