Sponsor one of our overseas students

In 2013, more than 25% of EDHEC’s campuses was made up of overseas students, many of whom have little knowledge of France and French culture. The sponsorship programme involving EDHEC graduates and new overseas students was set up to address this reality. Its aim is to help these students to better integrate and give them a chance to learn about the culture of France and EDHEC and establish links with a local family. 

For the third consecutive year, EDHEC Alumni is inviting graduates to sponsor overseas students attending the School. These new arrivals from countries such as India, China and the United States are full of curiosity and in many cases hope to establish professional and social links with the locals who welcome them to France. They are asked to answer a series of questions about their expectations, hobbies and career plans, after which they are put in contact with graduates who correspond to their profile. Sponsors and students will have an opportunity to meet for the first time at the Welcome Parties due to be held in Lille on 9 October and in Nice on 4 November.
