Delayed Start: A Second Chance to Join a Grande École Without Losing a Year
Did you miss the September intake, or do you simply want to change direction quickly without waiting for the following year?
EDC Paris Business School offers a delayed start in January, a flexible option that allows motivated students to join the Master in Management or the Bachelor in Management in the first year without wasting any time.
With an intensive pace and personalised support, this option offers a genuine second chance to achieve your academic and professional ambitions.
What Is a Delayed Start?
It is an alternative admission period, generally in February, which allows students to join a programme without waiting for the next September intake.
The delayed start is aimed both at those who wish to change direction after a first choice of studies that did not work out and at those who were unable to begin their course in September.
Ideal for changing direction or bouncing back after an unforeseen event, it means you do not lose a year.
Classes are intensified to catch up with the pace, with reinforced support for every student.
