All academic qualifications, including those earned at GEM, are recognized at the discretion of each country or university. Students seeking admission to another course of study or who wish to work in a specific country after their GEM program may need to have their GEM degree certified through a process specified by the receiving authority.

Visa requirements may apply to International students in order to study or work in France. All international students are expected to verify requirements with their local French consulate and plan accordingly. GEM has no influence over this process.
