EPITA seems to be a "Grande École" according to wikipedia [1].

It's obviously not as selective as Polytechnique and their curriculum is more applied and less theoretical than other "traditional" schools, but maybe it's for the best.

I've consistently heard good things about people who graduated from that school. Actually, in my company, one of the most productive engineer is an EPITA graduate, and we do have a lot of employees coming from much more elitist schools (including ENS and X).
