Nova School of Business and Economics has not published dated rounds for the cycle shown, so the 2 dates below are ours — a planning guide, not the school's calendar. Applying early still generally carries higher acceptance odds and earlier scholarship visibility.

RoundDeadline
R1 (International / Double Degrees / CEMS) 23 March 2027 indicative — not published by the school
R2 (General) 30 April 2027 indicative — not published by the school

All 2 dates above are ours, not Nova School of Business and Economics's. An indicative date is one the school had not published for this cycle when we last checked, so we projected it from the rounds it runs each year — or, for a school that admits on a rolling basis and publishes no rounds at all, it marks roughly when applying still makes sense. Treat it as a date to confirm, not one to plan against.

What we checked, and when. 2027 intake — exact rounds not yet published; dates projected from the recurring pattern. Re-checked 1 Sep 2026: Nova's own Master in Management page says only "Applications are closed" and publishes no 2027/28 calendar, so these remain our projection rather than the school's dates. Confirm on Nova's admissions page

Frequently asked questions

Do I need the GMAT for Nova SBE?
A GMAT or GRE is recommended but not strictly mandatory — Nova reviews applications holistically. Admitted students typically score in the 620–710 GMAT range, with an average around 650. Applicants with a strong undergraduate record from a well-known university can apply without a test score, though submitting one strengthens the file.
Can I take CEMS at Nova SBE?
Yes. Nova SBE is a CEMS academic member, and IMM students can opt into the CEMS Master in International Management track. CEMS adds an exchange semester at one of the alliance's 30+ partner schools, a business project with a corporate client, and joint certification. CEMS candidates apply through Round 1.
