University of Birmingham MiM Application Deadlines & Admissions Timeline

Birmingham runs a single September intake for the MSc Management and admits broadly on a rolling basis rather than to fixed staged rounds. For 2026 entry it publishes a final application deadline of 28 August 2026 for UK and other applicants who do not need a visa; if you require a Student visa you should apply substantially earlier to leave time for a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) and visa processing, and popular courses can close before the nominal cut-off once full. Confirm the exact current-cycle timeline on Birmingham's own page, and line it up against the other schools on our [deadline tracker](/deadlines).

Exact dates for the upcoming intake are confirmed against the school's official admissions page as they are published. See every European school's confirmed rounds side by side on our interactive deadlines timeline.
