Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 30: Excelia, a leading higher education institution in France, welcomed 50 new Indian students for the 2023-2024 academic year.

The number of Indian students joining Excelia this year has increased by 50% compared to the 2019-2020 academic year, before the Covid-19 pandemic.

Indian students at Excelia are particularly interested in the MSc in International Business Management on the School’s legacy campus located in La Rochelle, on the French Atlantic Coast.

We offer programmes in four beautiful French cities, La Rochelle, Tours, Orléans and on our brand new campus in Paris inaugurated this year. Yet our tuition fees remain reasonable, especially when you compare them with our counterparts in the US or in the UK”.
