STEP 1: CREATE YOUR CANDIDATE PROFILE
To start your application, you must first create an online account on the application site join.kedge.edu. Your
online application can be completed in multiple stages. Therefore, you can return to it at any time until the
registration deadline.
During this first step, you will need to choose the training programme to which you wish to apply based on the
selected programme, determining:
- Format
- Teaching language
- Academic year
- Entry level
- Campus and schedule (full-time or work-study)
→ With 2 years of higher education or 120 ECTS, you can join the IBBA in the third year.
→ With 3 years of higher education or 180 ECTS, you can apply to enter the MIM track, the KEDGE
Bachelor, or the two-year specialised trainings, starting with a preparatory year (to acquire
managerial skills, know-how, and interpersonal skills, and to develop initial professional expertise)
followed by the specialisation year (Titre, MSc).
→ With a four-year degree (A-levels +4) or 240 ECTS credits, you can apply to enter directly into
the specialisation year of our specialised programmes (MSc or MS programmes).
→ The language of instruction will depend on the programme selected in the second year.
3
The final assignment for the preparatory year depends on the availability of slots on each campus and the
programme choice. We close applications as soon as we no longer have availability on a programme or campus.

the beginning of the work-study contract.
2.

We need all your transcripts provided by your school or university in a single PDF document. Please note that the

clearly stating the attainment of 60 ECTS credits per year.

Hospitality Management programme, which will require certification as described above). If you do not have a
valid certificate at the time of your application, you have the option to download a language test appointment to

certificate must be submitted as soon as it is obtained.
