Complete overview of scholarships

Student services

KEDGE BS and its International Students Association Melting Potes offer every semester to International Students a pick-up service from “Bordeaux Mérignac (BOD)” airport and “Bordeaux Gare Saint Jean” train station.

The International Students Association Melting Potes supports the International Office in facilitating the integration of international students among the French students through the organization of activities all year round.

Housing services

  • The Housing service of KEDGE Business School is available on a single platform. The platform allows you to find housing in our city but also in other cities in France and abroad.
  • You will find housing offers from private landlords, real estate agencies and student residences.
  • A multilingual team is at your disposal 6 days a week to help you to find and book accommodation.

Library services

The Kedge Library (incorporating the libraries at Bordeaux, Marseilles and Toulon) offers its users a number of specialist information sources that are primarily focused on management: books, academic and professional reviews, students’ own work, publications by teaching staff, and various specialised databases.

Medical services

Wellness is above all a philosophy of living. The concept means 'a personal feeling of well-being', and is therefore a global state of health. It covers the important things in life, but also daily trivialities that often make life exciting, and prevent it from becoming gloomy... Wellness is the importance of feeling comfortable in your skin and the idea that happiness is different for everyone.

Campus life

  • Bordeaux
The new Bordeaux campus has been designed to be a living space. Spread over 35,000 m2, it has dedicated work and chat rooms, and sports and relaxation areas.
  • Marseille
KEDGE Business School continually invests in substantial logistics resources, both in terms of its educational infrastructures and cutting-edge technological resources. 
  • Paris

The group created a new establishment in Paris' 9th arrondissement, a vibrant hub of activity where students, teaching staff and businesses can meet, exchange and interact.

Sports facilities

The Bordeaux Campus Has Four Sports Areas

  • The gym
  • The dance studio
  • The weight-training room
  • The multi-sports ground

They are managed and run by the Sports Society, the Arts Society and Sports Supervisor Sébastien Debray. For obvious security reasons, students do not have free access to these rooms. 

The Marseilles Luminy Campus Has Two Indoor Sports Areas
  • A weight-training / cardio-training room
  • A dance studio

They are managed and run by the Sports Society, the Arts Society and Sports Supervisor Ludovic Chaix. For obvious security reasons, students do not have free access to these rooms. They can access the activities by following the appropriate registration procedures.

Student clubs

The Confederation acts as a link between the administration and the associations, but is also there to support members of the associations with legal, economic and organisational problems. The Confederation also deals with professionals, an accountant and a lawyer, who work with KEDGE’s associations, and meet each association at least once a year.

Accreditation

This dual expertise in education and research has earned it its status among the 1% of the world's business schools that are triple accredited by EQUIS, AMBA and AACSB.

Good place to broaden your horizons

The school is very nice overall and very active with a lot of events on a daily basis. It has very great sport facilities (gym, dance room, 3 basket fields with one indoor). It's a very amazing school for taking part in associations of any genre: humanitarian, sport, dance, accounting, working, kids, animals, nature, extreme sports..
