FAQ

ALL courses are entirely taught in English.

There are no minimum GPA/grade requirements. Your application must be competitive enough for you to be pre-selected for an interview (in person or via Skype). The keys to be authorized to enroll in our program are excellence, motivation and compatibility of your professional plans.

No, you don’t. ALL courses are taught in English. You do not have to attach a French language certificate to your application. Foreign students will be offered optional weekly French classes.

Your level of English should be good enough so you can actually understand what is said during classes. Level C1 or equivalent is required.

Check the « steps for a complete application » section on the application page.

Your level of English will be verified during the interview if your application is pre-selected. The level we expect is a C1 level (or equivalent). You can check the English language test equivalency table: https://www.ef.fr/tests-anglais/comparaison-tests/convertisseur-score/

The CV and letter of personal statement MUST be in English.

We accept the following documents in English or French only:

• Transcripts
• Diplomas
• English language certificate
• Letters of recommendation sent directly by your referees

Your CV and personal statement MUST be written in English.

Yes, they can. We accept letters of recommendation in French or English (only).

No, you need to apply again as if it was the first time. For instance, if you were accepted into our program and were not able to come, you need to apply again for the following year if you wish to e a part of our program. Your authorization of enrollment is only valid for one year.

You can apply directly for the M2 only if you are a “cadre de santé” (if you have done the extra fourth year which awards you this title). Otherwise, you have to apply for the M1.

Check the prerequisites on the application page.

If you are a physiotherapist and have a doubt about whether you should aplly for the M1 or the M2, email contact@bme-paris.com and attach your CV.

The BME Paris master’s program is open for both “formation initiale” or “formation continue” students.

However, students do not have a choice whether they apply for the “formation initiale” or the “formation continue” regime.

You must refer to the « Formation Initiale regime vs Formation Continue regime » section on the application page to determine to which regime you belong.

NB. Also check the « tuition fees » section on the application page to find out about the fee difference. Make sure you can actually afford it or have it financed before you apply if you belong to the « formation continue » regime.

No, you don’t. Your background is the decisive element.

If you have a doubt, you need to email us before you apply: contact@bme-paris.com

No, you can’t. We receive so many applications that we cannot check them individually before the current batch ends. It is YOUR responsibility to send a complete application. If it is not complete before the end of the current batch (example: 1 letter of recommendation missing), it will not be examined and will be moved to the next batch and so on.

The only documents that may be missing in your application are:

• your transcript from the last semester of your current studies (which you will need to send as soon as you get it)
• your last diploma (which you can send later as long as your transcripts establish that you validated the corresponding degree)
• your English language certificate (you must attach a document that explains why. For example, you will be taking the test at a given later date and will send the results as soon as you get them, or you are exempted from providing the certificate because you have been attending an English-taught program, etc.).

In any case, you MUST NOT send an email to the administrative coordinator to ask if your application is complete or not.

Yes, you will get a confirmation email stating that your application was submitted successfully (not that it is complete though). 

We accept almost every certification in English language as long as you obtained the equivalent of a C1 level (check the table of equivalence: https://www.ef.fr/tests-anglais/comparaison-tests/convertisseur-score/).

The most common tests are: TOEIC, TOEFL, Cambridge, IELTS.
