Fees are shown in each school's local currency and exclude living costs, which vary widely by city — so compare total cost of attendance, and confirm the current fee on the school's own page.
Can I study a MiM in France in English?
Yes. All 20 programs we profile in France are taught entirely in English, so you can complete the degree in English. A working knowledge of the local language still helps with daily life and local internships — confirm the language of instruction on each program's page.
Do I need the GMAT for a MiM in France?
11 of the 20 programs we profile in France do not require the GMAT or GRE (some are test-optional or waive it under conditions); the rest ask for a test. Policies change each cycle, so confirm on each school's admissions page. Our directory of MiM programs in Europe without the GMAT lists the test-free options.
When are the application deadlines for a MiM in France?
Most European MiMs, including those in France, run several application rounds between roughly September and the following summer, and many admit on a rolling basis — so earlier rounds usually carry more seats and better scholarship odds. Exact dates differ by school and move each cycle, so always confirm on the school's own page. Our deadline tracker puts every France program's rounds on one timeline so you can plan without missing a date. We last verified France's rounds against the schools' own admissions pages in May–September 2026.
