Application Process

MBA is looking for highly motivated candidates, with diverse profiles and well-defined personal talents.

Admission to the MBA program depends on a rigorous selection process. The process is not only meant to determine whether candidates are suitable for the MBA program, but also whether the program will meet each candidate’s expectations and career goals.

Application review begins in November 2010 and ends in July 2011. When the School receives your application, it carries out a pre-selection on the basis of the documents sent.

The Admissions Committee will then let you know if you are considered suitable to proceed with the selection process which typically lasts from 4 to 12 weeks after all tests are completed and all documents received.

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis and, given the large number of applications, those received much in advance of the deadline (30 April 2011) have a greater chance of being admitted.

It is therefore in the interest of all candidates to submit their application as early as possible.

Admission Results

Candidates receive a formal letter from the Admissions Service to inform them about the admission decision as soon as the selection process is completed. Whatever might be, results will not be communicated via telephone.

Admission

If accepted, the candidate receives the official letter of admission to the Program and the contract for participation. If all places available have been filled, the School may decide to place the candidate in a waiting list or offer admission for the next edition.

Deferment

Admission to the Program is valid for the year in which the application is submitted. Deferment may be requested for the year following the application, but confirmation of admission is at the discretion of the Admissions Committee.

Non-admission

Admission to the Program is highly selective. The selection process assesses the value of the individual candidate but also takes into account the composition of the MBA class which must be consistent with the quality and diversity that the School fosters.
While quite aware of the commitment that all candidates make in the selection process, the School does not provide individual answers to non-admitted candidates.
