Le Figaro Étudiant publishes an annual ranking of the best French business schools. In 5 years, ESSCA’s score has risen significantly (from 14.8/20 in 2020 to 17.3/20 this year), highlighting the school’s continuous progress in the last few years.

The ranking is based on three main categories. ESSCA stands out with the following scores:

  • Academic: 17.4/20
  • International: 15.4/20
  • Employment: 18/20

The overall score of 17.3/20 places ESSCA in the ‘winning trio’ of ‘the only schools to hold the EQUIS label, a top-of-the-range European accreditation that is very difficult to obtain’, say the journalists.

On the employability criterion, ESSCA ranks first thanks in particular to the excellent entrepreneurial career of three of its graduates, who have created successful start-ups that are members of the French Tech Next 120.

In its editorial, Le Figaro also praises ‘an excellent alumni network for ESSCA’.
