Exchange experience

I'm an exchange student in the Reims campus in the academic year of 2023-2024. I think this campus is good for an exchange experience because there are a lot of exchange students and even the french people who come to the grad school don't live in Reims, so basically everyone on the campus is new to the city and wants to form a bond. In terms of academic experience, I think Sciences Po system is really controlling. Their attendance policy is really strict and all the classes have an assignment for the week, either a presentation or an evaluation, which makes the semester exhausting since the beginning. Also, I didn't like the fact that in some classes there are only presentations made by students and no later explanation by the professor. I don't like this method because I think the students only focus on preparing their presentation and we don't really pay attention to the presentation of the other classmates as much as we would pay as if the professor was presenting. To summarize, I still love some of my classes, but I had higher expectations about Sciences Po's method, since it's the best political sciences university in Europe, which made me a little disappointed.

Class of 2018, Int'l Business Administration

Studying at Skema Business School in Sophia Antipolis was a fantastic experience. The campus is modern and located in a wonderful tech hub. The professors bring real-world business experience to the classroom. I loved the multicultural environment and the group projects. Skema gave me great friends, a strong global network, and the right skills for my career.

Just a big NO-NO

As an international student attending the MBA WINE AND SPIRITS BUSINESS program and spending 32 thousand euros (besides the need of quitting my job, move, find an accommodation and change lifestyle) I would say that the school is worth less then half of what it costs. The only good aspects of it are the big students’ communities, the commitment of the international office and the quality of some teachers who cannot really give their best because they’re hampered by the strict organisation of the school programs. Administration, services and the overall school organisation are really below expectations and the educational level is just average despite the cost and the “reputation”. Everyone (classmates, other international students and french ones from all courses and years) complained about the fact that “the school used to be a good one, but now is just bad”!

Course - Corporate Finance and fintech

The course itself was great as it gave me ideas into a new world and now i have a better understanding and the know-how in fintech. Overall, teaching staff are professionnel and supporting in ensuring we get the best out of our time there
