SKEMA
Welcome to the Wolfpack
NC State hosts SKEMA Business School’s U.S. campus on our Centennial Campus. SKEMA is one of the top business schools in France with additional satellite campuses in China and Brazil. The Raleigh campus has grown to almost 800 students a year, making it the largest concentration of French students in the U.S.
The GTI helps orient, connect, and integrate the SKEMA students into the NC State and surrounding community. SKEMA students also participate in various cultural, community service, and academic activities as part of the Cultural Exchange Network (CENet).
SKEMA students who are selected by their school to attend the Raleigh campus must complete an application to receive access to NC State services and facilities.
- Apply through the GTI Application Center (go.ncsu.edu/gti_apply). This application will ask for personal data and the Global Training Initiative has taken additional steps to ensure the data collection complies with new EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) standards. If you are or will be a resident of an EU Member State, please review the following data privacy notice.
- Select “Global Training Initiative” then “SKEMA” under Special Programs.

- If you’ve forgotten your password after changing it or are having other issues, contact the Help Desk via email (help@ncsu.edu) or other methods.
