IE Business School MiM Application Deadlines & Admissions Timeline

The IE MiM is 15 months full-time, not 12 — earlier published descriptions sometimes carry an outdated 12-month figure. The programme runs across three academic terms with an option to add a Lab period or an international module. IE offers two start dates per year — September and January — which is unusual among top European MiMs and supports candidates whose application timing doesn't align with a single annual intake.

Yes — IE operates rolling admissions rather than fixed competitive rounds. Applications are reviewed continuously, with decisions typically issued within four to six weeks of submission. The illustrative cut-offs for the September 2027 intake are 15 November 2026 (early consideration), 15 February 2027 (R2), and 15 May 2027 (R3), but candidates can apply at any point. Earlier applications carry the usual advantages of larger seat availability and earlier scholarship visibility.

Technology is the largest single destination at around 22% of placements, followed by consulting (21%) and finance (20%). Retail and marketing/media round out the top five sectors. Top recruiters by hiring volume include Deloitte, Amazon, Accenture, PwC, McKinsey, BCG, Salesforce, L'Oréal, Uber, Meta, Nike, and Mercedes-Benz. The employment rate at three months post-graduation was 88% in the most recent class, with weighted three-year salary on the FT 2025 ranking reported at US $95,000.
