In the latest report of the ministry of higher Education on the numbers of successful students in French universities, we learn in particular that only 27% of the students entered the first year of the license 2008 got their license three years later, and that 12% of students must go through an additional year to complete their degree. “The age of obtaining a bachelor’s degree and especially the series of the bachelor’s degree are the variables that have the greatest influence on the success in license,” says the ministry. But the university in which the student is also important. And it is, therefore, Angers university, which tops the ranking, followed by The university of la Rochelle and Chambéry.

This ranking is based on the value added of each university is calculated by the ministry of higher Education. The value added corresponds to the difference between the success rates recorded and the rates simulated. This last has the success expected of the university in the light of the national level and the profile of the students (sex, origin, socio-professional, series of the bachelor’s degree, age and seniority, disciplinary group entry in L1). “The value added enables to identify a university compared to the national average, after taking into account the effects of structure,” explains the ministry. In order not to skew the results, the figures chosen are those that concern the students have completed their three years of study in the same university.
If one takes into account only the rate of success observed, the ranking is slightly messed up. In this case, the university of Angers is still in the lead but it is the university Lyon 2, which occupies the second place on the podium. It is followed by the university of Grenoble 3 (which only shows, however, an added value of 3.3 percentage points), the university of south Brittany and the university of Chambéry.
According to figures published by the ministry, 27.2% of students enrolled in L1 in 2008-2009 were getting their license three years later. It was then the women who did the best with a success rate of 30.6%, or 8.9 percentage points more than men. In the same way, students from families highly favoured have more chances to earn their license (32.1 per cent) than those from disadvantaged families (to 20.9%).
in the period 2008-2012, the university of Clermont Ferrand 1 came in the lead with the highest value added 18.7. It was followed by the university of Angers, and those of La Rochelle, Lyon 2 and the university of North Is Midi-Pyrénées.

Between masters, professional licenses, and OTC, the universities host more than 60% of French students. The ministry of higher Education recently published indicators on the employment situation of graduates in 2014. Employment rates were 91% in two years for a master’s LMD and 97% for the master of education, 30 months after graduation. Licensed professional, an insertion rate at two years (after graduation) of 93% has been observed in the last survey encrypted provided by the ministry of higher Education. Rates similar to those of the previous year. Figures released at the end of the previous annual survey (2012 graduates) we were also allowed to establish a classification by sub-sector universities offering students the best chance of finding a job at the end of their training. Although many institutions display a insertion rate higher than 90%, the University Lyon 2 is distinguished in our classification, with 100% in the areas of Science, Technology and Health.
