How to choose a business school in Bordeaux?
Beyond choosing a particular school, you must first prioritize your needs. In which field do you want to specialize? What subject attracts you? What is your professional project? Then you can rush to a business school in Bordeaux that offers the training most in line with your aspirations.
Once you have defined your needs, all you have to do is consult the different training offers in the city. If several programs appeal to you, you can then simply compare the schools, choosing the one that seems to correspond to your profile. Some examples of questions to ask yourself:

If you are still undecided, you can read the testimonies of former graduates or those of current students. You will be able to form an idea about the school and prepare for your visit.
Bordeaux, the students’ favorite color?
You’re going to tell me, “That’s an easy play on words”. But whether we like it or not, Bordeaux remains one of the favorite cities for students. Ideally located, it remains well served, whether to go to the capital or to the Mediterranean. Count on two to three hours by train to reach either one.
Bordeaux is also a promise: that of living “in the Southwest”. Just a few kilometers from the beaches, Cap Ferret or the Bassin d’Arcachon, Bordeaux offers you an exceptional living environment, in summer as well as in winter.
A dynamic city, Bordeaux is also resolutely turned towards culture, with the Cité du Vin, the Musée des Beaux Arts or the Muséum de Bordeaux. It is also a city rich in architecture, with several squares and several historical monuments:
- The Basilica of Saint-Michel
- The Saint-André Cathedral
- The Esplanade des Quinconces and the monument to the Girondins
- The Big Bell
- The Place de la Bourse
As you can see, Bordeaux remains an attractive city for students. It also offers a diversified training program with its numerous business schools. So, are you tempted by the Bordeaux epic? Don’t hesitate, Bordeaux is and will remain a safe bet.
