An ad hoc committee ranks the top five candidates per nationality using: economic situation of candidate and family; baccalaureate distinction; type of studies in the two years after the baccalaureate; academic results and university assessment; MBS International Competition results; personal and professional project; and nationality. Scholars are assessed like other MBS students and meet an MBS tutor monthly; the award can be ended for unjustified absence, disciplinary action or weak results.
