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 published a final application deadline of 28 August 2026 for UK and other applicants who do not need a visa — a date that has now passed. Re-read on 13 September 2026, the course page still advertises the September 2026 start and names no 2027-entry deadline, so the next cycle's timeline is not published yet. When it appears, note that Birmingham closes applications 'as soon as the programme is full', and that if you require a Student visa you should apply substantially earlier than the nominal cut-off to leave time for a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) and visa processing. Confirm the exact current-cycle timeline on Birmingham's own page, and line it up against the other schools on our deadline tracker.
Exact dates for the upcoming intake are confirmed against the school's official admissions page as they are published.

- University of Birmingham — MSc Management international tuition £30,330 for 2026 entry (the course page displays fees by fee status; the overseas figure is the 2026-entry postgraduate-taught rate, corroborated across published course listings — confirm the live figure via the course page's international fee selector. Re-read 13 Sep 2026: the course page again rendered only the UK/Ireland figure, so the overseas rate remains the corroborated 2026-entry postgraduate-taught level rather than a figure read off this page) ↗ — University of Birmingham
