Admissions

Meet us, Join us!

CEFAM organizes entrance exams both in France and abroad. Our entrance exam is designed to better understand the candidate’s personality and vision of the world.

Students do not need to be bilingual for admission to either the undergraduate or the graduate program…

Applicants for the Undergraduate program must first complete an Admissions Application form before taking the CEFAM Entrance Exam. Fall and winter admissions are both possible at CEFAM.

The CEFAM Entrance Exam has been developed to recruit students with international manager potential. We take the opportunity to talk with each candidate and confirm that the CEFAM program corresponds to his/her personality and professional ambitions. Although students do not need to be bilingual to enter the CEFAM program, a strong level of English is required to follow the courses. For those students whose English needs improvement, CEFAM offers the CEFAM Prep Program. The CPP program allows students an opportunity to improve their English level during the first 2 semesters at CEFAM by taking a mix of CEFAM courses and reinforced English language classes.

Admissions Interview in French - The admissions committee is interested in learning about each candidate and his/her potential to succeed in the CEFAM program. Students will also be asked to respond spontaneously to a general culture question and discuss a current event with the committee.

Have you completed one or two years of higher education and now wish to apply to CEFAM?

The admission assessment for transfer students is the same as for high school students.

Every year, CEFAM accepts students to its program who have already completed one or two years of higher education in another institution.

Admissions

Each transfer student application is considered individually. Students may request the transfer of certain courses taken and passed in another educational program. Such requests must be accompanied by official course descriptions, including the number of contact hours, the course weight, and the final grades obtained.
