About the FACC Foundation
The French-American Chamber of Commerce Foundation (FACC Foundation) was launched in 2012 to sponsor the training and education of the next generation of transatlantic business leaders. Through its highly selective "Serge Bellanger French-American Business Scholarship Program", the FACC Foundation provides financial support to French students seeking to pursue an MBA in the U.S., and to American students who wish to pursue an MBA, a Master's degree or a Mastère Specialisé in a business-related discipline in France.
Every year, the FACC Foundation provides multiple, merit-based scholarships. Each scholarship is worth $10,000 and exclusively covers academic tuition. To date, the FACC Foundation has awarded over $1 million in scholarships.
2024 applications are open! French and American students studying graduate-level business on the other side of the Atlantic are encouraged to apply.
Applications will be under review by a jury during the months of April and May and scholarship winners will be notified in June.
