Round 2: January 3rd, 2024, at midnight Paris time

You select your top choice if admitted to more than one school.
The application fee is 125 euros.
Students must choose one option only, i.e. if you apply directly to HEC, you cannot apply through Join a School in France (ex SAI), and vice versa. Both methods are treated equally and fairly.
If an application is submitted both through Join a School in France and through HEC directly, only the first validated application shall be processed for the September 2024 intake.
