Hey guys,

especially for my German MIM applicant colleague ;) I am from Austria and considering this programme as well, I really love it, for various reasons. Have you looked up scholarships? I just found this one website in the links of HEC, but it is in French, so I need to wait for my gf or someone else to translate it^^.

Anyone else already applied? Some experiences?

@Location:
Yeah, I've seen from google maps that it's about 30km from the Parisian centre, but I dont really think this is a disadvantage. The campus is big, so for during the week I would basically: study, do sports, meet with colleagues (also party possible ;)) and on the weekends you can travel to the centre, go out there, etc.

HEC's MIM is undoubtedly a great program in terms of both academics and job placement. However, you should take in to account the fact that the program does not offer a lot of scholarship. The maximum amount is 6000 euros, which is less than 30% of first year tuition. Furthermore, if you are awarded Eiffel scholarship (separate application), the merit scholarship will be voided.
I understand that it would be a great investment; however, most applicants are recent grads, some of whom have already accumulated loan from their undergraduate study. Expect them to take on that much more financial burden is somewhat unreasonable.
ESCP Europe, on the other hand, is extremely generous, which is indicative of their great philosophy in rewarding excellence and talent. This is where I'm heading next year!

Well, from what I understood, the Eiffel scholarship is a little bit more than 1,120€ per month, which is really OK in my point of view.

but thanks for your input, ESCP has a very nice programme as well, but there are two things.... first, the test(s): they do not accept GMAT for internationals, i mean wtf, their campuses are like the only ones asking for EMAT, or SAI..... have u already done such a test?

Second is more personal: I don't speak french or spanisch..... I would learn it and start in London or Berlin with the english programme, but then there's still the admisstion test thing, unfortunately.

I don't know what you're talking about. ESCP is one of the five SAI schools, thus its application process is the same; namely, it accepts GMAT.
The program is also taught in English at the Eiffel campus.

Ok.... I have looked it up today on this website:
https://www.escpeurope.eu/escp-europe-pr ... ss-school/

I even scanned the relevant parts in the whole info PDF, and it clearly states that for the French campus you need Englisch AND French, and that the above mentioned admission tests are necessary.


Am I missing something? Please provide me with the link you were working with.

thanks and
best regards

hi everyone!

I am also planning to apply for the HEC MiM in january i.e second round. I am apllying through SAI.

Please share your experiences if you have already applied to it.

I found that SAI gives very few characters to complete the essays. Did anyone else face the same problem?

Hi,

Same here... Does anyone have some reliable statistics about the selection at the interview?
Could someone who has already been to the interview tell his/her experiences?

Cheers

Lets start discussing potential questions:

One question that really gets asked is: Why MIM? Why our particular University? Why France? What plans after you earn your degree?
