Application Procedure
Candidates must complete and return the application form, together with the items required, the TOEFL for non-native English speakers and the GMAT for all the EMBA candidates. Once the admission file is completed, the candidate’s request is sent to the jury of examination. Completed files are examined from the jury and admissions are on a rolling basis. A condition for admissions may require the candidate to take remedial courses before beginning the program. Candidates must have a Bachelor’s in Business Administration or an equivalent three/ four-year degree. The Admissions degree Committee also takes into account work experience, either part-time or full-time, to determine the candidate’s eligibility.
Admissions Tests: GMAT and TOEFL
The admission’s Committee suggests a GMAT score of 500 or more. Students may choose to sit the GMAT after commencing their studies in their EMBA Program. In this case, the offer of a place will be conditional upon obtaining the required score. For non-English speakers, a TOEFL score of 213 or more is required. Inferior score is not necessary eliminatory. The administration reserves the right to use other measures of language efficiency, such as the TOEIC, CCB, and individual/ group interviews, to determine admissibility.
