Masters (Coursework)
Our full-time MBA is taught over 18 months and has a precise limit on class size. The program is delivered in an intensive format where students complete two units of study at a time over a seven-to-eight-week period.
To be eligible to apply for the full-time MBA, you need to have:
Admission pathways
If your academic record does not meet the above criteria, a GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test) score of 600+ may be required.
We are happy to consider applicants without a first degree who have an excellent career record. Candidates with no first degree but with substantial managerial experience are advised that GMAT 600+ may be required.
We consider each case holistically and on an individual basis. We look for evidence of communication skills; interpersonal skills; leadership skills; team-building skills; integrity and ethics; initiative; cross-cultural sensitivity; motivation and commitment.
Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT)
While GMAT is not a specific requirement for candidates who meet our other admission criteria, students with GMAT scores within the target range will be more likely to receive an offer for entry into the program. You need to have a balanced score on all parts of the GMAT. You should aim for a score of 600+. Although we do not specify a minimum, we are highly unlikely to admit a candidate with a score below 500.
