R. Anyone enrolling in M.Sc In must meet the program requirements to obtain the degree. All courses, group work and internships are mandatory to validate the year.
Q. Can I apply for a VAP or VAE?
R. At this time we do not offer the possibility of a VAP or VAE.
Q. What are the prerequisites for M.Sc In?
R. To enter the 1st year, a student must have a Bac+3 and 180 ECTS credits minimum. The first year covers the fundamentals, so we are open to all types of previous training. Only the Data Science course requires from the first year a strong foundation in quantitative subjects.
To enter the second year, a student must have a Bac+4 and a minimum of 240 ECTS credits. The student must be able to justify the bases in the chosen field (Finance, Marketing, etc.).
Q. I don't speak English, can I do the course?
R. Yes, you should know that the courses are given in French, but the supports can be in French or English. Therefore, minimum basics are necessary. In addition, we provide English language courses to help you improve.
Q. I am an international student, can I do your work-study program?
R. Yes, you can. Newcomer" students can follow the training through a sandwich course only. The tuition fees remain their responsibility
Q. What do I do if I am denied a visa?
R. In the event of a visa refusal, you may request a refund of the advanced fee, subject to submitting the notification of visa refusal.
Q. Am I accompanied in the visa process?
R. Yes, we do our best to accompany you. However, it is the responsibility of each student to obtain a visa and to have proper documentation.
Q. What is the cost of living in Paris?
R. Paris is one of the most expensive cities in Europe. As an example, you should plan for a minimum of 500€ for a shared room in the Paris region. In order to live decently (without making excesses) and cover all your expenses, count on a minimum of 1000€/month.
Nb: a student visa commits you to attend classes. Students in France on an EDC student visa who do not come to class will be reported to the prefecture and their student visa will be withdrawn.
Q. What if I can't find an alternation?
R. The training is planned on a rhythm of 1 week of course and 3 weeks in the company. In addition, you must prove that you have professional experience to validate the year. If you don't find a company at the beginning of the school year, you will have to continue your search until you find a host company.
Q. Am I accompanied in my search for a company?
R. Yes, as soon as your registration is finalised (registration form signed and deposit paid) we provide you with tools such as a search assistance platform and coaching workshops. We do not find the company for you and do not place you in a company. It is the responsibility of the students to find a hosting structure.
Q. Can I ask for a refund of my deposit if I can't find a pro contract?
R. No, paying a deposit commits you personally to take charge of the training. If you cannot/will not cover the costs we recommend that you look for a company first.
