MBS runs a single September intake but sets its application cut-offs by region and visa status, so the practical deadline depends on where you apply from. For the 2026 intake the school published rounds closing on 19 May 2026 for candidates from India and Africa, 20 June 2026 for other visa-requiring candidates, and 18 August 2026 for non-visa (EU/EEA and visa-exempt) candidates. Visa-processing time is the reason the earlier regions close first — so non-EU applicants should treat the early date as the real one. As of July 2026 the India & Africa and other-visa rounds have closed, and only the non-visa (EU/EEA and visa-exempt) window to 18 August 2026 remains open for the 2026 intake; MBS has not yet published its 2027 dates. Seats and the up-to-€2,000 scholarship fund fill as the cycle progresses, making an early application the safer move. Confirm the current cycle's exact dates on MBS's own admissions page, and map them against the other schools on our deadline tracker.

Frequently asked questions
Do you need the GMAT for the MBS Master in Management?
No. MBS admits international applicants to its Master in Management through an online application file, an English-proficiency test and a pre-recorded video interview rather than a mandatory GMAT, GRE or Tage Mage — and where a reasoning test applies, the school offers its own free in-house test as an alternative. You will still need to meet the academic-level requirement (120 ECTS for Year 1 entry, or a completed bachelor's / 180 ECTS for direct Year 2 entry) and an English threshold. Because there is no GMAT gate on the international route, MBS publishes no admitted-student score average, so there is no range to quote.
When is the MBS Master in Management application deadline?
MBS runs one September intake but sets its cut-offs by region and visa status. For the 2026 intake it published rounds closing on 19 May 2026 for India and Africa, 20 June 2026 for other visa-requiring candidates, and 18 August 2026 for non-visa (EU/EEA and visa-exempt) candidates — the earlier regional dates reflect visa-processing time, so non-EU applicants should treat the early date as the real one. Seats and the scholarship fund fill as the cycle runs, so apply early. Confirm the current cycle's exact dates on MBS's own admissions page.
