LMU runs a single annual window for the MMT and only one intake. Applications open on 1 February and close on 15 May each year for the following October (winter-semester) start; LMU states plainly that the programme does not start in the summer semester, so a missed May deadline costs a full year. The published timetable after the close is unusually specific: applications are reviewed until the end of May, candidate assessment takes place in mid-June, and the final decision comes in early July. That leaves a narrow runway between decision and enrolment for visa and accommodation steps, which matters more than usual in Munich's housing market. Applicants from China, India and Vietnam should also budget lead time for the APS certificate, a German-wide requirement that sits outside the university's own timetable. Confirm the exact current-cycle dates on LMU's own application page, and line them up against the other schools on our deadline tracker.
LMU Munich runs 1 application round. Earlier rounds generally carry higher acceptance odds and earlier scholarship visibility.

Frequently asked questions
Do you need the GMAT for the LMU Munich MMT?
No. The MMT has no GMAT or GRE requirement and LMU publishes no admitted-student test average. Selection runs through an aptitude assessment instead: a bachelor's of at least 180 ECTS held either as a business degree with at least 20 ECTS of informatics, an informatics degree with at least 20 ECTS of business, or an interdisciplinary degree with at least 20 ECTS in each — with at least 15 ECTS of the minor already completed at application — plus a bachelor grade of 2.3 or better on the German scale and English at CEFR C1 evidenced within the last two years. Candidates who clear the formal check sit an online exam on foundational knowledge, and the strongest are invited to an online interview with the programme's professors.
When is the LMU Munich MMT application deadline?
Applications open on 1 February and close on 15 May each year, for the following October start. There is one intake only — LMU states the MMT does not begin in the summer semester — so a missed deadline costs a full year. After the close, applications are reviewed until the end of May, candidates are assessed in mid-June and the final decision comes in early July. Applicants from China, India and Vietnam should also allow time for the APS certificate. Confirm the current-cycle dates on LMU's own application page before you plan.
