HEC-Eiffel Scholarships in MBA for Developing Countries

Scholarship applications will be available to all accepted candidates for the HEC Paris MBA. The work of the HEC Foundation allows us to provide students with almost €1,000,000 in financial aid each year.

For international students wishing to study abroad, France is a popular option. Living and studying in France is not always affordable, though. While annual tuition at public universities ranges from €200 to €600, at private universities it can reach €10,000. 

The annual average for living expenses is €10,000. Thankfully, there are several French scholarships available for international students.
