Editor's notes

Apply by Jan. 31 if money matters. Admissions run to June 30, but EDHEC guarantees scholarships only for applications received and accepted by Jan. 31, and after that they're first come, first served. Last cycle's guaranteed early-bird minimum of 20% required a complete file by Dec. 1.
A test score is a scholarship lever here. You can apply without one and get a conditional offer, but the Excellence award (40%, €21,000) rewards standout candidates, and EDHEC lets you upgrade a scholarship with a better GMAT even after you've paid your first installment.
Pick recommenders who have managed you. EDHEC rules out colleagues and friends, wants the letter on letterhead from a work email, and its template asks for your strengths and weaknesses and a moment that showed maturity. Brief them with a specific story.
The interview is three conversations. The admissions manager, the surprise-question video and the alumni attaché each see a different side of you. Keep your motivation consistent across all three, and don't save your best example for the last one.
