Six reasons to apply early
- The earlier rounds present greater opportunities to be considered for financial awards and scholarships. However, it is important that you explore all options for funding your studies independently and do not solely rely on securing a financial award or scholarship. We strongly recommend you submit an application to the programme no later than Round 4 specifically if you wish to be considered for a scholarship.
- Due to the competitive nature of securing a place on the MBA programme a waitlist is operated throughout the year. This is done in order to ensure there is balance and diversity in the cohort. If you are placed on the waitlist it is possible you could be offered a place at a later stage in the recruitment cycle. Further information will be provided at that time on next steps in the process.
- You will have first choice with University accommodation.
- There will be a longer period of time to make arrangements for the upcoming year, including addressing any work commitments, preparing for international travel and the visa process.
- You will receive invites to additional pre-programme events and networking opportunities.
- It provides extra time to connect with future class mates.
