Application process

The two-phase selection process

The selection is a 2 phase process:

A first selection is made based on the evaluation of your application and supporting documents.
The pre-selected candidates will then be invited for a face-to-face or Skype interview.

How to apply

Apply online

Supporting documents to be uploaded before the application deadline:

Degree certificate(s) or current enrollment certificate
All official academic transcripts obtained in a higher education institution (exchange programs included) with official GPA
Résumé (CV)
English language proficiency test score report (TOEFL or TOEIC or IELTS or Cambridge). Please note that, no minimum pass score is required to apply. This test is waived only for the following:
- English natives (please upload a scan of your passport)
- Students who have earned a degree from an institution in which ALL instruction is conducted in English. The official language of the degree program has to be stated in the degree certificate or its supplement, or in the transcript of records
Motivation essay
Passport-style photo
Non-refundable application fee of €125.
2 completed online reference forms (at least one should be filled out by a professor)
- Reference letters must be submitted by the application deadline for each round.
- We recommend asking for references at least four (4) weeks before the application deadline.
- Any reference letter uploaded directly by the candidate to their application must be in PDF format and include the signature of the referee.

Please note that a B1 level in French is recommended. Some of the program's activities take place in a French-speaking environment, such as the sales seminar or the Redressement/Restructuring mission in partnership with the commercial court. Even though the non-French speaking international students will be teamed up with other French-speaking students in these missions, a minimal understanding of French (level B1+) would allow them to better benefit from their learning.
