Dina & Gloria, two future international students, earn the Eiffel Excellence scholarship

The Eiffel Excellence scholarship programme was put in place by the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs to provide financial aid for outstanding international students who want to pursue their studies in France.

This year, in 2022, and thanks to their outstanding academic performance, two future students of Rennes School of Business are laureates of the prestigious Eiffel scholarship programme.

Dina & Gloria, who are originally from Egypt and Mexico, will benefit from financial support to help fund their daily life while they study in France.

Laureates of the Eiffel Scholarship receive a monthly maintenance allowance for everyday life totalling €1,181 Euros/month as they pursue their academic education in Rennes, France. Students up to 25 years old from developing countries at a master’s level, and applicants up to 30 years old from developing and industrialised countries at the PhD level, are able to apply for this scholarship which also ensures various services to facilitate their studies abroad, giving them the peace of mind to concentrate fully on their academic progress and performance. Scholarship holders also benefit from tickets to travel between France and their country of origin in the context of their studies.

Meet the scholarship holders:

I am delighted to be one of the honoured Eiffel scholarship laureates. I have always dreamed of pursuing my postgraduate studies in France as I have always been obsessed with French culture. The Eiffel excellence scholarship represents a great opportunity for me to pursue my educational and career-oriented goals by helping me obtain my master’s at the prestigious Rennes School of Business. I really appreciate the confidence that has been placed in me by the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs and I will do my best to prove that I deserve it.

Gloria Elena, from Mexico

This opportunity is a means to achieve my professional and personal goals through hard work while being supported by my amazing family. It will also help me manage my expenses while studying and developing myself in the multicultural environment of France while attending a prestigious academic institution like Rennes School of Business.

We are looking forward to welcoming them to Rennes School of Business!
