EHL Junior Academy 2023

We have nothing but praise for the organisation of the Junior Academy. From the inscription to this email, the whole experience has been flawless. Eliott thoroughly enjoyed the courses and the teachers and forged meaningful friendships with many students. He has only one goal now: being accepted into the Bachelor Program in Lausanne.

Mother of Sophia Gregory, United Kingdom

EHL Junior Academy – Lausanne – Hospitality Business & Innovation 2019

My daughter was able to see what her university was going to be like. It allowed her to be sure that EHL was where she wanted to be. She was more confident about starting in September.

Michael Delf, Parent of Thomas Delf, United Kingdom

EHL Junior Academy – Lausanne – Hospitality Business & Innovation 2020

My son signed up for the summer academy. It was one of the best things he has done. He embraced it and blossomed - finding a ‘north star’ to direct his career search. The Academy model was perfectly balanced; enough exposure to hospitality – strategic and tactical, from concept to coffee making! Fun and yet the highest standards realized. Teachers were passionate and inspirational – an excellent indication of what is to come with the bachelor program. The engagement is exceptional. As a parent, I could not have asked for more – brilliant.

Nate Bride, Father of Sophie Bride, United States of America

EHL Junior Academy 2023

My daughter, Sophie, spent a week at your Junior Academy at the end of June. This was Sophie's first trip overseas and a long way away from California...but as soon as she walked on the Lausanne campus, Sophie had found her second home. The lectures, the facility, the students, the agenda, the leaders - what a well-run introduction to what business hospitality can be! And, based on Sophie's incredible time at Junior Academy, EHL is now her top choice for University!

Julio Berazategui, Father of Sophia Berazategui, Chile

EHL Junior Academy 2023

My child enjoyed the EHL Junior Academy. She came back happy with many memories and new experiences. She also fell in love with the university, and her wish to apply there grew even bigger. Overall, a 10/10
