We operate a staged deadline process. Please review the guide below, which details our application deadlines, important information about the admissions calendar, required application documents and what to expect once you’ve applied.
Please see the upcoming admissions calendar for our application deadlines.
You may apply at any of the application deadlines indicated in the admissions calendar. Your admissions journey is staged, but the Admissions Committee reserves the right to communicate decisions outside of these application deadlines with you. Our calendar indicates when you will receive a review decision from us, and the period we will be conducting interviews; as well as the final decision date.
The same selection criteria is applied throughout the admissions cycle, but competition is often intense in the final months and we recommend you apply as early as possible as places are filled on a first come, first serve basis. Priority for scholarships and bursaries will be given to those who apply by the March deadline.

You must take either the GMAT or GRE before you submit your application. If you have not received your official score report by the time your submit, we do accept the unofficial score report as evidence. We have no minimum score but recommend you apply with a GMAT score of 600 or above.
Our institution codes are:
Practise the GMAT test with London Business School's GMAT simulator and prepare yourself for the test.
You will need to submit the names and details of two referees – preferably one academic and one professional – in our online system. Select individuals who know you well and can provide specific feedback on their interactions with you either in the classroom or the workplace.
Please note that the referees do not need to write a reference letter for you. When you have saved the names and details of your two referees, we will email them a form with specific questions to answer. Your referees will be required to complete the online form within the deadline round you aim to apply by.
If English is not your native language, and you have not been studying fully in English or living in an English-speaking country for at least two years, please submit your IELTS, TOEFL, Cambridge CPE, CAE or PTE Academic score. Other tests will not be accepted.
Our TOEFL institution code is 0898.
For more information see our English language requirements for guidance on accepted scores.

Successfully submitted? Here’s what to expect once you’ve submitted your application.
Interview invitations are issued based on your initial application review. Your interview will be conducted by a member of our alumni community or a member of the Recruitment and Admissions Team.
Currently, all interviews are held virtually. The Recruitment and Admissions Team and alumni utilise the same interview process – who you interview with will not have any impact on the outcome of your application. The Admissions Committee employs the same assessment criteria regardless of the interviewer (staff or alumni).
We attract, and select, the very best global talent. If you’d like to find out more about your eligibility for the programme, we’d love to hear from you.

READ MOREWe accept strong undergraduate degrees (minimum 2:1) in a numerate discipline such as finance, accounting, economics, engineering, chemistry, physics, math, computer science and business and management or other proof of quantitative ability. You must complete your undergraduate degree prior to the start of the programme in September.
If you've lived in a non-English speaking country and/or your undergraduate degree wasn't taught in English, you're required to prove their English fluency through an English language speaking test. We recommend you take this when applying for the programme. If you apply without a test score, your application may still be reviewed.
We accept both the GMAT and GRE. You must take one of these tests prior to submitting your application.
