Overall
I wish I had known...
how the school is not interested in accomodating international students. They work very hard to recruit them (by the way, in the year of 2007, only after we had rejected alternative schools and selected HEC, the shcool informed the students that the tuition would be DOUBLED).

Final comments
HEC has a great name in France and in certain companies in the UK. If you are looking to pay for a brand, it is a logical choice. However please do not expect top quality services espeically adminitration, school facilties, hosuign accomodations etc.
