Nova publishes a real cohort for this programme rather than a typical profile: 72 students enrolled in 2025/26, 78% of them international. Nova describes the intended intake as 0–2 years of professional experience with an average age of 23–24, and requires a minimum of 12 cumulative weeks of work experience or internships to apply. No GMAT average, gender split or nationality count is published, so none is stated here.
