Living at Savignac
Here is some information on how student life is organised at Savignac
Accommodation
The School helps you find accommodation by providing you with a list of local people offering accommodation when you register. All you need to do is contact them.
- Accommodation for approximately 40 students is available on campus within the School’s grounds. These are reserved for Year 1 MBA students who live 9 – 10 months on campus. They have a very full timetable with a lot of on-site group work.
- All the other students live outside the campus. Most of them live in the village nearby. Students who live a bit further away are usually a 5 – 10 minute car journey from the School.
Students live most of the time in shared accommodation, often in large properties with gardens, barbecues and sometimes a swimming pool and tennis court. Living conditions are very comfortable.
Meals
At lunch time, all students eat at the on-site cafeteria, which is run by Sodexo. Meals are balanced and healthy. Year 1 MBA students, who live on campus, have dinner there too. A fixed fee is charged for each year of training. A schedule is provided at the time of registration.
Visiting guest speakers and hospitality professionals, who sleep at the hotel at Savignac, can eat with the students. So there is a real mix on and close to the campus.
Travel
There is a bus to Périgueux, the local main town, which is about 20 minutes away. However, students don’t often use this service as they all know each other and tend to car share. They have even set up a Facebook page to organise their trips out!
Sporting activities
Students at École de Savignac have a sports hall they can use. Opening hours are decided by the students, who also organise sporting activities outside the campus during the year (tennis, football, handball, volleyball, basketball, swimming, etc.).
20 km from Savignac there are numerous other possibilities, such as sports centres, indoor public swimming pools, clubs and associations.
