SKEMA Business School International Merit Scholarship

SKEMA Business School is a triple-accredited French grande école of management with campuses in France (Lille, Paris, Sophia Antipolis) and a global network, delivering English-taught Bachelor's, MSc, and Master in Management programmes in business, finance, data, and international management. SKEMA awards merit scholarships that reduce tuition for strong international applicants across its programmes. For Sri Lankan students, SKEMA offers a globally ranked, English-medium business qualification, a multi-campus international experience, and France's well-regarded post-study work options — without needing French for the degree itself. As a grande école, tuition is significant, so the merit reduction is meaningful. Scholarship bands depend on your academic record and the programme, and can change each intake, so confirm the current award, eligibility, accreditation, and deadlines with SKEMA admissions before applying.
