Coup de pouce Grant: €50,000 awarded to support 22 students

In July 2026, the BSB Foundation convened its selection committee for the Coup de Pouce grants, a financial aid program for students at Burgundy School of Business (BSB) facing economic hardship.

‍

Nearly 70 applications were reviewed by the BSB Foundation team, alongside Claire Hyvernat, Foundation Trustee, andOrlane Reboux, Head of Student Life at BSB.

22 students supported thanks to the generosity of donors

‍

Following the committee's review, 22 students were awarded a Coup de Pouce grant, totaling €50,000.

‍

This financial aid allows recipients to pursue their studies under better conditions by covering essential student living expenses, such as housing, food, transportation, educational materials, and daily costs.

Behind every scholarship, a story

‍

The Coup de pouce scholarships enable students to pursue their studies under better conditions, despite significant financial constraints. They provide concrete support for expenses related to housing, transportation, and the general cost of student life.

‍

‍"This aid will be a significant help with logistics and housing. As an M2 student on the Dijon campus and an apprentice in Paris, not being from either city means I have to maintain two homes. A fantastic professional opportunity came my way, and it was one I couldn't turn down for my future career, as it meant joining the European leader in Asset Management. This allowed me to focus on what matters most: my academic and professional success."

— Thibaud Feuillade, Coup de pouce scholarship recipient

Promoting equal opportunity at BSB

‍

Beyond the financial amount, each scholarship represents an opportunity for a student to continue their academic journey with greater peace of mind.

‍

At the BSB Foundation, we are convinced that financial difficulties should never be a barrier to success. That is why the Coup de pouce program supports students every year whose motivation and potential deserve to be nurtured.

‍

By fostering access to education and academic success, the Foundation takes concrete action to promote equal opportunity at Burgundy School of Business.

‍

Thank you to our donors

‍

These scholarships are made possible thanks to the commitment of our donors, companies, alumni, staff, and friends of BSB.

‍

Their generosity enables the BSB Foundation to support students most in need, champion their ambitions, and provide them with the means to build their future.

‍

Together, we are making equal opportunity a reality and contributing to the success of BSB students.
