Entry requirements

Professional Experience

MBA Candidates are normally expected to have a minimum of 3 plus years of substantive managerial experience in the private or public sector.

They will have managed budgets/people/projects.

Qualifications

Candidates will normally be expected to hold a 2:1 Honours degree (which may be in any discipline) from a UK university, or an equivalent professional qualification from a similar non-UK institution.

Non-graduates who possess extensive professional experience (more than 5 years) and/or a postgraduate qualification are encouraged to apply.

Non Standard Entry

Non Standard entry relates to applicants who may not hold a degree or the required degree classification. We would still encourage applications if you have:

Significant management experience (more than 5 years),

Below 2:1 or no formal university degree

Substantial record of achievement in business and leadership (for example accredited training courses, learning & development courses).

Each application is considered on a case by case basis and will include an informal, online interview with the MBA team. The interview is an opportunity to discuss your suitability to MBA programme, your experience and interest in the MBA programme.

GMAT Score

A GMAT score is not a mandatory requirement; however, we do encourage candidates who have undertaken the examination to submit their scores for consideration alongside other criteria during the admissions process.

We look for a balanced score across all components of the GMAT and will only accept scores which are still valid (attained within the last 5 years) by the time of entry to the programme.

Our institution is listed as University of Liverpool, University of Liverpool Management School and the programme code for the full-time and part-time MBA is: ZCC-MW-92
