ESEO, in association with the Lycée Mongazon, offers its students in science preparatory classes the opportunity to enter the engineering cycle without taking a competitive entrance exam. However, students who so wish can take the competitive entrance exams for the Grandes Écoles: they can choose between the two routes!
Students are monitored on a personalised basis, with continuous assessment of their level (written and oral exams) to ensure their success.

Testimonials
To enter the ESEO engineering cycle, I went through the Classes Préparatoires aux Grandes Écoles associated with the Lycée Angevin Mongazon: MPSI in the 1st year and PSI in the 2nd. Thanks to these classes, I acquired the rigorous work ethic and learning methods I needed to succeed in my engineering studies.
