Application instructions

On this page you can find information on how to apply for Master Programmes at the School of Business, Economics and Law.

Please read the instructions carefully before you start your application.

Admission rounds

Make sure you apply in the correct admission round: 

  • International/ first admission round, last day to apply 15 January 2026: All international students are encouraged to apply in this round.
  • National/ second admission round, last day to apply 15 April 2026: We do not recommend international students to apply in this round, unless you are a citizen of an EU/EEA country or Switzerland.

How to apply

Submitting Syllabi for Certain Courses

You need to show that you meet the entry requirements.  Therefore you need to submit course syllabi for any courses that are not clearly identified as equivalent to the programme specific requirement. For example if you have a statistics course that is not named statistics, you need to attach a course syllabus for the course in your application. 

Contact us if you need further advice. 

Selection

For all our programmes, submitting a GMAT score will give you priority in the selection process.

Some of the programmes also offer the opportunity to get admission priority by submitting a personal motivation application (see list below). Motivation applications are used in both the international admission round and the national admission round.
