BSB does not require the GMAT, GRE or Tage Mage for international and parallel admission to its Master in Management. French post-preparatory-class candidates enter through the BCE competitive exam and Bac+2/+3 holders through the Passerelle parallel-admissions exam, but international applicants and direct Master-2 entrants are assessed through an application file and a motivation interview rather than a standardised admissions test. Because there is no admissions-test gate on that route and BSB does not publish an admitted-student test average, there is no score range to quote here. You will still need to meet the school's academic-level and English-language requirements. If you are weighing test-optional routes generally, see our guide to a MiM in Europe without the GMAT.
Not required on the international route, which is a file plus a motivation interview. French candidates enter through the BCE or Passerelle competitive exams instead

A GMAT or GRE is not required to apply to the Burgundy School of Business MiM — it is one of the 75 of 118 Master's in Management we track (about 64%) that admit without a required test. See every European MiM you can apply to without a GMAT on our MiM without the GMAT shortlist, or read how GMAT waivers work.
Most European MiM programs, including this one, accept the GRE and often the GMAT Focus Edition or a school-specific test as alternatives, and weigh the whole application — academics, internships, essays, and interview — rather than the score alone.

- Burgundy School of Business — Master in Management (Master Grande École). NEGATIVE RE-TESTED 2026-09-05, one of two withdrawn. This profile asserted from 23 June 2026 that BSB runs 'no one universal deadline' and told readers to go and find the cut-offs themselves. BSB publishes them: for the September 2026 intake, '19 November 2025 (10am) to 26 June 2026 (12pm)' for Bac+2/+3 entry through the Passerelle exam and '18 November 2025 to 30 June 2026' for direct entry into Master 2. Both closed; no September 2027 windows are published, so no dated round is carried into the tracker. The test negative DID reproduce: the page still names no GMAT, GRE or Tage Mage requirement on the international and parallel routes, and publishes no admitted-student score average. FEE INTAKE CHECKED 2026-09-05: the table still reads 'Tuition Fees (2026-2027) — Master 1 €14,600, Master 2 €15,000', unchanged since 23 June 2026 ↗ — Burgundy School of Business
