Note: In order to be considered you need to apply to the programme and undergo interview which is standard for all MBA applicants.

Academic requirement

A minimum of a 2:2 UK honours degree, or a recognised equivalent international qualification. Candidates without this can be considered on a case-by-case basis. In these circumstances, we will look for:

• Professional qualifications
• Continued professional development
• Above the minimum work experience requirement.

Work experience

You must also have at least three years postgraduate work experience at the point of application. This needs to be managerial experience which includes but is not limited to: managing people, projects, products or processes.

IELTS Academic: 6.5 overall with 6.0 in each element.

These are the English language qualifications and levels that we can accept.

If you do not currently meet the level required for your programme, we offer intensive pre-sessional English language courses, designed to take you to the level of English ability and skill required for your studies here.

If you have taken or are taking non-UK based qualifications, please check our country/territory specific information pages for information on the entry requirements from your country.

If your country isn’t listed, contact the Admissions team for more information.

The deadline to apply is Friday 10 July, but with scholarships in mind, candidates who apply early in the admissions round may have a greater chance in receiving an award.
