- Hello and Welcome back to the channels guys 😀
If you're new here, my name is Arif and in this video, I try to somewhat explain how flexible the ESSEC MiM Curriculum is.
There are 3 main facets of the ESSEC MiM Curriculum
📚 Academic Curriculum - The course starts with 7 Refresher courses that one has to validate by the end of the first trimester and after that, you can begin choosing your own courses. There are 10 mandatory courses that one has to take and you can select your electives from around 100s of elective options present
🌎 International Experience - In order to graduate, one has to validate at least 6 months of International experience. This can be done by studying at a different ESSEC Campus or going for an academic exchange at a partner school. There are options of double degrees as well with some schools around the globe. For students entering through international admissions, this criterion however is pre-validated.
🧳 Professional Experience - In order to graduate, one has to validate at least 12 months of Professional Experience. This can be done through Internships, Apprenticeships, Entrepreneurship, and Volunteer experiences. People who have prior work experience can get that validated towards this requirement.

⏳ Timeline
I had applied to Master in Management at ESSEC Business School in the 3rd round and received my acceptance back in March 2020. After applying for my student visa back in August 2020, I finally got the chance to fly to France at the end of September and start school on campus.
As always, thanks for watching and I will see you in the next one 😁

So informative!!
Kindly make a video about ESSEC Global BBA
Great video, Arif!
Thank you Muskan 🙂🙂
Thank you. This video was very helpful :))
Thank you :)
Good Job Bro 👍👍.You really work hard for the Aspirants.
Thank you so much A K :)
Very very informative! Thanks a lot!
Can you make a video about CV (what to highlight, do’s & don’t) , Personal Statement and Reference Letter?
Thank you Mansi :)
I do have a video on my channel about the points you've asked. Do have a look.
Hello, tbh one of the most helpful videos out there. Thanks for making such great content. I have one question...
Like you, most of the students enrolled in the MiM courses, have approximately 12 months of full-time work experience. How can we compete with that as freshers, we have some interning experiences and our GMAT score ???
People need not necessarily have experience. MiM is more focused towards fresh graduates so if you have some experience you'll have a little bit of edge only. High GMAT score does help but won't be the deciding factor
Thanks a lot, sharif! I'm going to the Cergy campus in Aug, and your videos help me a lot to prepare. Hope we can meet in person on campus and I will definitely say hi hhh.
Thankyou Beisbay. You can call me Arif.
See you soon at the Cergy Campus :)
I have a questions regarding this program. Can we go for an exchange to multiple universities? What's the assessment style?
Brilliant Arif. Keep up this amazing work. Helps a lot of aspirants like me
Thank you so much. I hope you have subscribed for more :)
@@iArifAhmad yes I have
I had a few queries on the ESSEC MiM program. I have messaged you on LinkedIn. Does that work?
Yeah no problem. By which name by the way?
@@iArifAhmad Saurabh Roy
I am B tech gradutae , working as tester in IT company , MBA or MIM . which one is good to placed into an industry ?
Thank you so much ❤️
You’re welcome 😊
Hey, Arif thanks for the video. can you please make a video on scholarship options for international students from India specific and can you explain more about the apprenticeship program that covers tuition fees that 2-year contract means I need to work for the entire 2 years of my degree or 2 years of service?
Hey Nick, as I explained in the video. The apprenticeship program is a work-study program so you work and study at the same time. If you follow a 6 month cycle. You will work for 6 months then study for 6 months so according to a 2 year contract, at the end you would have worked for 1 year and studied at ESSEC or elsewhere for a year.
Very informative, thanks.
I believe the imagination week is done, Could make a video on your experience in the imagination week and what it is about?
Thanks for the suggestion Anuhya. As the imagination week was online this time, there wasn't exactly much to do honestly.
I got selected for ESSEC MiM' 24. I m from India.
Can international students like me opt for double degree?
Great video Arif!
Just had a quick question
What did you mean when you said that the Chairs are sponsored by a company? Is the tuition for those trimesters paid for by the company?
Thank you Neha.
No, that is not what that is, otherwise everyone would want to be in a chair. It simply means the activities, the seminars, the company visits, the talks and every other activity happening in that chair is sponsored by the company. It is in no way related to our tuition fees.
محتاجة معلومات منك الله يخليك اذا ممكن تساعدني لاني افكر ادرس ماستر finance ب Essec انا حاليا في السنة الثالثة هندسة.و تندرس باللغة الانجليزية.
واش تيعطيو المنحة و كيفاش يمكن نحصل عليها؟و السكن ايضا و المعيشة كيفاش دايرة؟
Great video! Is the apprenticeship program only found at ESSEC or do other colleges have something like this too? (e.g. HEC, LBS etc.)
Hi Utkarsh, No HEC and LBS doesn't have the apprenticeship program.
That was an insightful video,
It would be great if you could share the Curriculum in Master in Finance as well at Essec
Thank you. As I’m not a student of MiF, my knowledge of it will be as good as yours will be from checking the course page
@@iArifAhmad haha, what I meant was, if you could ask anyone from Essec who is presently studying MiF to do a video with you regarding this
Hi, could you make a video about the free structure of the MIM course at ESSEC? And various loan options available to Indian students?
Thanks Prashant for the suggestion. I will surely keep it in mind.
Just to give you the idea, the academic fees structure is pretty simple and is payable in 2 instalments - before 31st August of each year.
You can find more information here - www.essec.edu/en/program/business-school/master-management-grande-ecole/financing/
This was so informative. Thank you sharif, you gained a subscriber today! I have my essec interview in 10 days. Any tips you can offer as to what to study and know beforehand
Thank you Sayantan. You can call me Arif. If you have been shortlisted in R2, there is a webinar tomorrow to help you prep for the interview. I hope you registered for it?
@@iArifAhmad yes I did. However tips from an actual admit would help me even more...
Hi Arif, this was indeed a very informative video. The way you explained the curriculum with such ease is really great.
However, I wish to ask you about the procedure for specialisation. How can one gather a specialisation in a field ( eg. Finance ) under this programme? Is there any particular eligibility that one needs to clear before going for specialisation?
You can either opt for a chair or a track if you want to pursue courses in a particular field, or maybe just choose finance courses if you want to make a career in finance
Hi Arif! Thank you for such an informative video, this is so helpful. Just wanted your insights on this - I'm a PR professional (1.5 years experience) with an MBA looking to pursue MiM in ESSEC. Do you think my profile is a good fit for the course? What gmat score is good enough to apply to ESSEC and how are the job opportunities post completion?
Followed you on LinkedIn as well!
Looking forward to your insights 😁
Hey Ishita
It’s hard to talk about your profile without knowing more details. Can you DM me on insta or LinkedIn and we can further discuss your chances of MBA at ESSEC
If given an option between IE and ESSEC Business School's MIM, which one is better if taking into consideration the brand value and placement statistics?
Both MiM are slightly different in nature. ESSEC provides you the flexibility to do internships in the middle while IE is a straight one year MiM. As far as brand value, both are highly recognised schools here in Europe. But needless to say, IE will be more known in Spain while ESSEC will be more known in France.
Hey, thank you for such an informative video. So if someone has 0 work ex, for that person to graduate from ESSEC, he/she will have to complete 12 months of internship while studying at ESSEC, is it possible to intern for 12 months in the span of two years at ESSEC while taking classes?
Yes, it is but nobody, in general, keeps it that hectic and usually stretches their MiM duration to 3 years if they are coming as freshers with 0 experience. People who come with some work experience validate that and then are somewhat free to choose when they want to intern and study etc.
Also, if you have done a summer internship during your 3rd or 4th year of bachelor, you can submit that as well towards the validation of the 12-month work experience, and depending upon the type of work you did, it can be approved/disapproved.
Hey, you mentioned an apprenticeship is a 2 year contract so if someone starts their apprenticeship in the 2nd year how does that usually work out, like does the academic curriculum get extended into a 3rd year or do you just graduate and work for another year at the company?
It gets extended to 3 year
Hey, it would be great if you make a similar video on London School of Economics for Global MiM and MiM.
Hey Tanay, thanks for the idea but since I am currently studying at ESSEC, this video has some credibility but making the same for LSE MiM won't have any credibility as my knowledge of the same would go only as far as talking to students there or reading the brochure.
ShArif Ladka You can get in touch with a student through Linkedin and request to either appear on the video or give the insight. This course Global MiM being 2 years is getting quite popular for people without work ex. Please see if it’s possible. Thanks
8:34 if you start an internship in T2/january, will you do it alongside your classes? so you're studying and working at the same time? or will T2 completely turn into a full-time internship instead of classes?
You can find both kinds: full time or part time internships. In part time internships you will also follow classes. In full time you just work.
@@iArifAhmad cool, is it possible to be doing internships all throughout the 2 years?
Hey! Great work, keep going.
How beneficial will it be for an Indian to join Essec and do double degree at partner IMM's so indian job market also readily recognises it. Or is it even possible?
Hi Vishlesh, thank you so much :)
As far as I have read and understood, doing the double degrees at partner IIM's isn't possible for us as one cannot go for a double degree in their home country.
So the refresher courses we pass, they count towards the 25 total courses needed to finish the programme? Also does part time workex count towards the 12 months work ex needed ?
No the refreshers don't count towards those 25 courses.
Some part of it will count.
The apprenticeship part... if the company is paying your tution fees.... then isn't it good that you will be working for company and gaining workex.? And would it help in getting a full time job after graduation..?
It surely is a good option but since it ties you to that company for 2 years, some people don't prefer it.
Hello, it was a great video! I am a little confused between MSc finance and MiM courses. Msc Finance courses are shorter but MiM courses offer more opportunities for work experience. I am an engineer wanting to shift to finance, what do you think is the best route for me? Also, how easy or difficult is it to find employment in UK or USA after graduating from France?
Thanks : )
Hi Shaurya, since I'm enrolled in MIM, I can only give you an answer from that perspective. In my opinion, for us international students it's better to choose MiM to allow us enough time and opportunities to understand where we want to be. I have friends in my batch who just like you are engineers and want to switch to finance and have taken MiM over MSc Finance. Coming to the question of employment in the UK or the US, I mean it all depends on your profile, your connections, the opportunities you grab. But if that's the goal why study in France. Why not study in that country itself?
@@iArifAhmad Thanks for the reply. I have also come to a conclusion that MiM has a broader range of opportunities, both in curriculum and work experience. About the job opportunities, I just want to know what percentage of people graduating end up in London, considering that is a major economic hub of Europe.
Elaborate without the fluff. Great job! I gather that one pays the difference in fee for a double degree? Or does that work on the mutual exchange model as with a semester exchange?
Depends on the school. For all the double degrees, you don't have to pay any tuition fees for the school. Only for a double degree with Berkeley and one with Kings London, you have to pay the additional tuition fees
Oh okay. Thanks for taking the time to reply. Good luck with you channel:)
I’ll be sure to tune in on future videos!
Thank you so much Ananta
Hey Arif! great video!
Any idea about the requirements to go for the NTU Double degree you talked about?
Hi Dhananjay, there's an entire application process in which your GPA, your GMAT score and other things are considered but one of the most important criterion to be able to even apply is 18 months of professional work experience for the double degree with Nanyang
@@iArifAhmad Do they accept the GRE as well?
ESSEC does for its MiM admission.
I don't think it works for the exchange process. You'll have to give GMAT.
Hello Arif
I have a doubt, even if we take apprenticeship track, can we end our course in 2 years?
Yes, you can go for a 1 year apprenticeship to end your course in 2 years
Hey Arif!
In dual degree programs or in exchange programs, do we get post study work visa in both the countries or in one only?
I am not sure about that Vivek. It also depends on the duration of the exchange and the country's work visa policy.
@@iArifAhmad thanks Arif!
Is there an option of taking a gap year between the 2 years of studies?
There is no min requirement as such to take up a course so for an entire year ( 3 trimesters ), you can take 0 courses which in turn will become your gap year but apart from that as such there is no official thing as gap year. You can take up internships and work for a whole year and call it a gap year as well so everything is totally up to you. Although, like I mentioned about not taking any courses for consecutive 3 trimesters, you still would have to pay the administrative fees ~ 2000€
The video was pretty detailed and everything was well explained.
But I had a query, can we opt for a double degree in a university of our nationality (IIMA in case of India), provided we fulfil the international experience requirements of ESSEC by working in different country during the course ?
Thank you, Ritika :)
No, the double degree is designed in such a way that you cannot go for it in your home country
Edit: Also, the international experience criterion - It's already pre-validate for us as we enter through international admissions
@@iArifAhmad thanks alot.
I understand that DD aren’t possible in our home country, but can chose for a semester exchange?
Is there any requirement for doing dual degree or anyone can do it from any partner college ?
You have to apply for it after coming to Essec and there is a short listing procedure
Is there age cut off for this course..I have 9 years of IT experience in MNC..I completed my b.tech in IT in 2012...I want to go up the ladder now and be in a better job and have a career growth as well as personal.....my only worry is the finance...so looking for scholarship options etc
There is no cut off but at this stage I don't think an MiM degree is a smart option for you.
How many tracks can be choosen by a student in a trimister?
As many as you can depending upon if they don't clash
Hey Arif, is recommended to go for Essec MIM if you’d want to work in france? Most of the linkedIn profiles that I see come back to india after graduation and work in india.while in case of USA you can easily find what people are actually doing in USA. Curriculum of MIM courses is great but is the motivation for doing a MIM for indians should be just getting international exposure ?
Hi. I would actually disagree here. Almost all my seniors are working here in France and other parts of Europe. Only a few go back to India and many of them go back to support their family businesses etc
Thanks for sharing that Arif . Will work on my research again! Keep going your videos are helpful !
Is there any problem in getting job there if we don't know europe languages?
You have English roles but since many international students prefer it, you'll have a lot of competition
Hi Arif
I studied in English language in my graduation, Is it mandatory to take Ielts and Gmat for Essec
Though I got 6 bands in my Ielts exam
Should I go for GMAT now and how much score is required.
You can email ESSEC and ask them for an exemption
Hey Arif hope you're doing great there. I just wanted to know that if a person has one year job / few internships after graduation , do we have to go for one year MIM or we can choose for two year?
Hello Violina, the duration of the MiM depends upon how many courses you take. To simply associate a course with credit, for now, know that 1 course = 1 credit and in 1 trimester you can only take a maximum of 8 courses (which usually is too much and majority of us take 5-6). Now in order to graduate, you have to complete 3 criterions ( mentioned at 1:20 ) and if you do have prior work experience and you validate it then from the Academic curriculum perspective you have to complete 25 courses and so it is your choice to select the duration of your MiM.
The beauty of ESSEC is the flexibility of the curriculum and not taking full advantage of it and just thinking about graduating as soon as you can would be a waste of opportunity in my opinion. You should definitely aim for your MiM to be at least 2 years.
@@iArifAhmad yeah got it thank you so much. Have an amazing time over there. 😊❤️
You're Welcome 😊
@@iArifAhmad 😊👍
I thought Apprenticeship is for year 2 students. If they do it like that then tuition fee for year 1 will also be paid?
Apprenticeship contract starts from the 2nd year only. And yes the tuition fees for Year 1 is also paid for in the same
Hi Arif, I had one question about ESCP if you can help with. So, ESCP website says only EU nationals can avail it, is it a hard and fast rule. So, international students from India cannot apply for apprenticeship there?
hi bro this video was very useful im planning to choose masters in finance for this september intake can u share the curriculam of finance pls
Thank you. As I am not a student of MiF, my knowledge of it will be as good as yours can be after checking the course page
Hi! great video! I had a few questions-
1. Do i have to know French or should have stayed in France for the apprenticeship?
2. Can I go for International exchange for my first year itself?
1. Yes, you have to live in France for 1 year before you can start an apprenticeship so it's basically integrated into the 2nd year of the MiM duration. Knowledge of French depends on the kind of role you get. Some roles do require quite a bit of French and some roles are even in English so it depends.
2. No you can't, the first application cycle starts in January ( i.e your 2nd trimester / T2 ) and that is for an exchange in the first trimester of your 2nd year here
@@iArifAhmad so I have to choose between an apprenticeship and international exchange?
I gave an example of a setting towards at the end where you can can do both.
Select a quarterly / half-yearly cycle and when you are at ESSEC, go for the international exchange
Hi. Nice video! By the way, I just wanna ask if it is strictly needed for you to have 0-2 years of work experience to get in the MiM program? Or 2 or more years of work experience is still okay?
Thank you Jerald. Depends on the school. ESSEC is fine with a little more as well. We do have people with 3 years of experience. Some schools however have strict restrictions and don't accept people beyond 2 years of work ex. So I'd suggest either check the website or just drop a mail to the Admissions Committee
Is taking GMAT necessary for a sure shot admit?
it depends on the school's requirements bro. If it is mandatory you cannot apply without it. If it not, then a high score will make a difference but you can never say because it is not mandatory.
Sir, I aspire to get myself enrolled in the MIM program in ESSEC as well, could I please connect with you on a personal level so that I could get my motivation letter verified by you? I also seek to read your motivation letter to understand how I must curate mine. Thank you for your videos, they’re truly motivational!
You can DM me on instagram or LinkedIn. Thank you :)
Hey Arif, what is the class size of the mim program at essec ?
Overall intake is around 800 students out of which around 350-400 are french speakers and the rest 400 are international students
Can we have option to switch domain / subject during the apprenticeship ?
It's highly unlikely that it will happen but it all depends on the company and your manager if he/she allows you to switch to a different role. I haven't heard anything like that happen.
@@iArifAhmad Thanks Arif
Hi Arif! Could you please help me out with the names of the marketing and leading a beauty brand professors
You can find it on the essec website through the chair page
Can a non eu student can apply for apprenticeship program?
Yes they can Aditya :)
Bro after doing mim from Essec, what are the placement prospects in india
I would suggest to do something from India if you want to work there
Arif tell more on double degree
Will try to make a video. Till then you can check it on the ESSEC website
What is tuition fee and how much is total cost (fee plus living)
I think the fees structure is updated for the next batch so you can check that on the school's website
Hey! Thankyou for the video. I do have more questions regarding the Apprenticeship thought, since it is very flexible, can a person start the Apprenticeship in the second year at ESSEC and continue with it after they graduate? And are the people doing an apprenticeship exempt from an internship?
Apprenticeship is a work and study contract so you will be studying and working at the same time. Hence for the duration of 2 years of Apprenticeship, you will be a student at ESSEC.
You can do internships first and then start your apprenticeships
I guess Essec is more hectic than HEC. Is it so?
It all depends on how you take your courses since at ESSEC you have that freedom
How much gmat score we needed , and if i am from English medium , do i need ielts
320+ or 670+
And you need to provide a certificate which will state that the medium of instruction was English
@@iArifAhmad how are the job opportunities in france after mim and can you tell us about apprenticeship in next video, how we get apprenticeship etc
I have talked about Apprenticeship in my ESSEC curriculum video. And searching for it or any other internships is just like how you find a job anywhere in the world. You apply in job portals and company websites and through your connections and networks
So a person with 0 Work Ex can't join?
I was talking about the graduation requirement at ESSEC, so a person with 0 work ex cannot graduate from ESSEC. He/She has to work for at least 12 months before they can be eligible to graduate.
If you have prior experience, you can use that to validate it towards this 12 month. It can be a full-time role or a 2-3 month internship in between your bachelor years (depends on the kind of work).
So, yes you can join with 0 work ex, in fact half of the batch is comprised of freshers but you cannot graduate from ESSEC with 0 work ex. You have to validate the 12 months.
@@iArifAhmad So like 2 Summer Internships of 3months and 1 6 month internship in the 8th Sem is good enough right?
@@iArifAhmad I'll reach out to you on Linkedin as well . Thanks!
It depends upon the type of work. After you come here, you prepare an application regarding the work you want to validate and the respective team goes through it and if it satisfies certain conditions then it is used towards the validation of 12 months of professional experience.
But again let me be clear, this is in order to graduate from ESSEC, not to get into ESSEC.
Work experience is not mandatory when you are applying to ESSEC for MiM.
A lot of people join who are complete freshers with 0 experience.
Can we opt for more than one chair ?
Technically, Yes.
But you would have to be very careful about it because there are a certain number of mandatory courses that you have to follow in each chair and if those courses fall at the same day and time then you will have a conflict so its better to check every single course relating to the chair before confirming to both chairs that you confirm your place ( Obviously, the first thing being getting accepted to 2 chairs and then having this option in hand.)
@@iArifAhmad okay I see, so we can't do it like, one chair in first year and second chair in second year ?
Yes, you can do that
Next video bhai
Yes bhai, very soon. Caught up with assignments and stuff.
Hey bruh
Can we be friends?
🙂
@@iArifAhmad is it a yes? Any instagram or something?
