Revenue model

1. Tuition and registration fees: Intégrale Prépa generates revenue through tuition fees charged to enrolled students across its three-year preparatory program (Bizuth/Carré/Cube) and through application fees (180€ per application). The school also offers supplementary intensive boot camps (stages) for TOEIC/TOEFL, Access/Sesame, and Prepa HEC preparation, which represent additional revenue streams. Being a private hors contrat institution, it operates fully outside the public Parcoursup system.
