Through one single online application, students who hold the equivalent of a non-French bachelor’s degree can apply to 5 business Schools at once: Audencia Business School, emlyon business school, ESCP Business School, HEC Paris, Skema Business School. Therefore, students save time and money by applying through Join a School in France and they maximize their chances of being accepted by a top-ranked School in France. Students from any background are welcome: business, engineering, management, art…

Please keep in mind that Join a School in France recruits international students for the Master’s in Management program only.

Where and how to apply?

The application process is entirely through Join a School in France‘s website. Every year, 4 admission rounds are organized between October and June. The admission’s calendar is available here.

What are the different steps of the admission process?

Join a School in France has made the application process as simple as possible. Please see the key steps below.

  1. Complete and submit the online application form

The application process begins on this link.

Students must provide below documents, either in French or in English:

  • An identity document (passport or national ID card)
  • A CV
  • An official diploma or certificate of attendance if the student have not yet graduated
  • A complete transcript of the bachelor
  • The official score report of the written test (GMAT, GRE, CAT, GMAT)
  • The official score report of the English test
  • 2 letters of recommendation
  • The proof of payment (students only have to pay 200€ in application fees for the 5 Business Schools).

 

  1. Have an interview

This is one of the biggest advantages of Join a School in France: students only have to take a single interview while applying to several Business schools.

After the Join a School in France team receives the students’ applications, they send them to each school so that they can review the applications in detail. Shortlisted candidates will be invited for one interview even though they have been pre-selected by several schools.

The interview is conducted in English by a minimum of 2 alumni of one of the 5 schools or Campus France staff. It is face-to-face and takes place in the city chosen by the student in the application form.

The purpose of the interview is to assess the student’s personality and goals, as well as their communication skills, general knowledge and analytical capacities.

What about the admission results?

After the interview, all elements of the application and the interview results are reviewed by the schools. The final admission decision is communicated by email to the students. If a student has been admitted to several schools, they will decide which school they want to join.

Join a School in France organizes virtual info sessions every month with the schools or the makers of the written tests. Students are allowed to ask all their questions during these webinars.
