Frequently asked questions

How much does the Hanken MSc cost?
For EEA, EU, and Swiss students, tuition is entirely free — one of the standout value propositions of any top-60 FT MiM programme. Non-EEA students pay €15,000 per year, totalling €30,000 for the full two-year programme; that is the rate Hanken publishes for studies starting 1 August 2024 and later, and it was unchanged when re-checked in August 2026. The Early Commitment offer reduces it by 25% to €11,250 per year, but only if you accept and pay within 21 days of your acceptance letter. A separate honour waiver gives second-year students another 25%, and the GBSN Honor Scholarship can waive 100% of fees for qualifying students from developing countries.
Where does Hanken rank for the Master in Management?
Hanken placed 60th worldwide in the Financial Times Masters in Management 2025, with a weighted three-year salary of approximately US $67,000 and a 94% employment rate at three months. As a specialist school with fewer than 100 new international master's students per cohort, the placement reflects Hanken's depth of quality rather than breadth of scale.
What salary can Hanken MSc graduates expect?
The Financial Times 2025 ranking reports a weighted three-year salary of approximately US $67,000 — a standardised cross-school metric measuring earnings three years after graduation. Hanken does not publish its own separate salary figure for the MSc, so no school-reported number is available for comparison.
