Admissions Criteria

The normal requirements for admission to the Stirling MBA programme are:

• A good honours or equivalent degree in any discipline, or an equivalent professional qualification (for example ACCA, CIMA etc).  Evidence of continuing professional development will also be considered.

• While at least two years work experience is normally required, candidates who have an outstanding academic record may be considered for admission with less.  

• Two nominated referees, at least one of which should be academic, who can be contact by the University to provide statements in support of your application.

• Candidates whose first language is not English and who do not have a recognised degree or professional qualification taught and examined in English, must provide evidence of proficiency - TOEFL 550, IELTS 6 or Cambridge Proficiency 'C' are acceptable.

Applications will be considered from outstanding candidates who do not have the normal academic qualifications but who have achieved considerable work experience in managerial positions of authority and responsibility. Candidates who do not meet the normal requirement of two years' relevant work experience but who have achieved previous outstanding academic results will also be considered for admission.

We do not require MBA applicants to submit a GMAT score but it may be provided as supporting evidence by applicants who do not meet the normal MBA admissions criteria.

How to Apply

Apply here or request an application pack from Postgraduate Admissions Office.

A transcript of studies from your first degree programme (or professional examinations) should accompany your application if possible and should show all courses taken, grades awarded and the final degree classification. Official copies of English language test results should also be included or be sent as soon as possible.

Please note that, although there is no specific deadline for receipt of applications, if an offer of admission is made, any conditions must be met prior to registration in mid September. You should therefore send transcripts, test results and other supporting documentation with your application form, but if this would cause delays, provide available information now and send supporting evidence as soon as possible.
