MBA Scholarships in France

Once admitted into the HEC Full-Time MBA Program, candidates have the opportunity to apply online for HEC MBA Scholarships. Our scholarships are highly competitive.

The Admissions team is available to guide applicants toward the appropriate scholarship.

HEC scholarships fall into various categories: merit-based or based on specific criteria, as in the case of the Forté Scholarship. Since each HEC MBA Scholarship is different, we advise applicants to launch the application process as early as possible. In some cases, an essay is required.

To be eligible for the scholarships, admitted candidates must supply details about their financial status and how they intend to finance their studies over the duration of the 16-month HEC MBA Program. All scholarship applications are initially completed online. For some scholarships, applicants may be required to attend an interview.

Please note that all admissions decisions are made independently of an applicant's financial situation. All scholarships awarded will be deducted from the last tuition payment. In addition, HEC scholarships only cover tuition fees for courses taken on the HEC campus. No full scholarships are available from HEC.

Candidate Profile


Filling out the Candidate Profile will inform us of your experience and background as well as your personal and professional objectives. This online form is also quick and easy to complete.

 

Based on your response, the Development Manager in charge of your region will provide a preliminary evaluation of your profile giving you an assessment of your potential as an HEC MBA candidate. We will either encourage you to apply to the program by submitting a subsequent application, or suggest areas in which you can make improvements before submitting an application.

The Candidate Profile should take around 10 minutes to complete. You should expect to receive feedback by email within two weeks.

Although the Candidate Profile must be filled out through our online application system, this service is free of charge - go to Candidate Profile
