In a move aimed at supporting high-achieving students, Morocco’s Ministry of National Education, Preschool and Sports has announced that free airline tickets will be provided to candidates invited to sit oral entrance examinations for France’s leading engineering and business schools during the 2026 admissions cycle.
The ministry said the initiative targets students currently enrolled in, or having completed, their second year in Morocco’s preparatory classes for grandes écoles who have been invited to take oral exams in France. The measure is intended to promote equal opportunity and encourage academic excellence.
The program covers candidates sitting business school entrance exams through the BCE and Ecricome systems, as well as engineering school entrance exams including X-ENS, CentraleSupélec, Mines-Ponts, CCINP and ENSAM. For the CCINP exam, candidates must have obtained a score of at least 13.5 out of 20.
Students wishing to benefit from the scheme are invited to register through the «Concours français» section of the preparatory classes portal. The deadline for applications is Tuesday, June 9, 2026, at 2 p.m.
Beneficiaries will be selected by a committee comprising representatives of the ministry and the CPGE Maroc association. Selection will be based on the ranking of schools included on the list of institutions eligible for Moroccan scholarships and on candidates’ results in the written examinations. In the event of a tie between candidates from the same institution, beneficiaries will be chosen by lottery. The ministry noted that the number of recipients will depend on the number of tickets available.
Selected candidates must confirm acceptance of their ticket within 48 hours of the publication of results. Electronic tickets will be issued once visas have been obtained. The ministry added that the operation will continue until the end of the oral examination period, no later than July 31, 2026, and stressed that the tickets are non-refundable and cannot be exchanged for cash.
