Is money (or lack thereof) the only thing keeping you from applying to a postgraduate course in France? If, like most young people starting out, you haven’t got the funds to self-finance your postgraduate studies abroad in France, all is not lost, so don’t bid adieu to your dream grade school just yet.
Provided you’re motivated and organized, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be able to cover the costs of grad school in France, thanks to the many funding options at your disposal (including grants, scholarships, benefits, loans etc.), but you need to know where to look.
Here are seven of the best ways to pay for grad school in France – courtesy of the world-leading French business school, EDHEC.
1. Contact us to apply for an Eiffel Scholarship
The Eiffel Scholarship program, run by the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, is intended for deserving international students studying for a master’s degree at French schools.
To be eligible, you would need to be under the age of 30, hold a non-French citizenship (even dual), and complete your studies in France.
Applications are accepted from October 10 to January 6 every year, though universities usually stop accepting applications about a month prior to the January deadline, so they have enough time to process them. Results are announced on March 20.
2. Contact us to apply for an EDHEC Scholarship
Not all French schools offer scholarships to international students, but EDHEC does. In an effort to recruit the world’s brightest minds, the globally-renowned business school offers scholarships to international students on the basis of academic merit and financial need, covering between 15 percent and 30 percent of tuition fees. Deadlines for scholarships range between March 31 and June 30. Contact us to find out more about each scholarship and download your own copy of their financial aid form here.
