Tips

Tips for a Successful Application

1: Find out more about the school

Find out about the curriculum, existing student organizations, and^third-year specializations. The idea is to be able to demonstrate during the interview that you are interested in ESCE and the Bachelor’s program in particular.

2: Write an introduction

In addition to a formal introduction (who you are, what you’ve done before, why you want to enroll in the school), the introduction should steer the conversation toward the topics you want to discuss. The purpose of the interview is to get to know you better.

3: Highlight your extracurricular activities and hobbies

These are the factors that will make a difference. If you’re passionate about an author or a musician, be sure to mention it. Similarly, highlight your extracurricular projects. ESCE values candidates who are enterprising and committed.

4: Stay up to date on the latest news

Current events are a way to gauge a candidate’s openness to the world. It’s important to pay attention to economic, social, and political news—and especially to international news.

5: Pay Attention to Your Nonverbal Communication

Look your interviewers in the eye, stand up straight, smile… in short, be mindful of the impression you make throughout the interview. Business attire is recommended.
