Entry requirements

UK 2:1 honours degree in any subject, or an equivalent overseas qualification.

If you do not meet the minimum academic requirement, you may still be considered if:

you have professional qualifications with substantial work experience; or

you do not hold a degree or professional qualifications but you have a very strong employment record demonstrating a high degree of responsibility.

If you do not meet the minimum academic requirement, we may require you to complete the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) which is an internationally-recognised assessment of analytical, numerical and verbal reasoning.

If we require you to take a GMAT Exam, we would require a minimum score of 555 in the current ‘Focus Edition format, or a minimum score of 600 in the previous ‘10th Edition format.

The GMAT is not a compulsory part of the application process, but if you have a score that you wish to report to us then this would be welcome.*

We accept scores from GMAT Exams delivered both online and at test centres.
