EDHEC Application Guide 2026: How to Apply to the International BBA

This guide covers the complete application process for EDHEC’s International BBA for 2026 entry. EDHEC uses rolling admissions — there is no single application deadline, but early submission is critical given the limited number of places, particularly on the Global Business Track.

Application Steps

  • Step 1 – Choose your track: Decide between the Global Business Track (100% English, 3 continents), Business Management Track (French/English, France-based), or Dual Degree track. This affects your language requirements, campus, and fee structure.
  • Step 2 – Online application: Register and apply at edhec.edu. Complete all sections of the application form including personal statement and track preferences.
  • Step 3 – Upload supporting documents: Secondary school transcripts, English language certificate (IELTS/TOEFL), motivation letter, and CV.
  • Step 4 – Admissions review: The EDHEC Admissions Committee evaluates your application. Shortlisted candidates may be invited for an interview.
  • Step 5 – Offer and confirmation: Successful candidates receive an offer letter. You have a limited window to confirm your place and pay the €5,000 deposit.

Key Documents

  • Secondary school transcripts (all years available)
  • Predicted or final grades certificate
  • English proficiency certificate: IELTS or TOEFL iBT (see score requirements page for minimums)
  • Motivation letter: why EDHEC, why this track, what are your professional goals
  • CV / résumé
  • Passport copy

Writing Your Motivation Letter

EDHEC values international ambition, academic rigour, and clear professional direction. Your motivation letter should explain your reasons for choosing EDHEC specifically (not just “a top French business school”), your interest in the Global Business Track’s geographic structure (Nice → LA → Singapore), and how you see this connecting to your career goals. Be concrete about industries and regions you are drawn to. EDHEC’s finance research strength and its connections to the asset management industry are worth referencing if finance is your area of interest.
