FEE CYCLE CHECKED 2026-09-13 (P25b, UK leg) and Edinburgh has ROLLED to the next cycle: the page is now headed 'Fees for entry to MSc Management in 2027' and prices it 'Home £26,040 / International (including EU) £36,540'. This profile had carried the 2026-entry pair (£34,800 / £24,800), correctly labelled in its prose but unlabelled on the headline fee.

- University of Edinburgh Business School — MSc Management: entry requirements and apply pages. INTERVIEW CHECKED 2026-09-03 across both: neither mentions an interview at any stage. Entry is "a UK first-class or 2:1 honours degree in any subject, or an equivalent overseas qualification", with "preference given to those with grades above the minimum requirements due to strong competition for places" and relevant work experience "not required but may increase your chances of acceptance".

- University of Edinburgh — English language entry requirements for postgraduate study. ENGLISH EVIDENCE CHECKED 2026-09-05: a degree accepted in place of a test must have been 'taught and assessed in English, either: in a majority English-speaking country or territory, as defined by UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI)' or at a university on the approved non-MESC list; 'We require evidence that your degree was taught and assessed in English. This should be in the form of a letter from the awarding university'; and for a non-MESC national 'your degree must be no more than five years old on the 1st of the month in which your programme starts'. P33f RE-READ 2026-09-12: read again for one question only — does submitting a test result BELOW the course requirement remove an exemption the applicant would otherwise hold, as Bath states ('you will not be exempt')? This page publishes NO rule either way. Recorded as a dated SILENCE on that question, never as permission: a page that says nothing has not promised to ignore a weak score. ↗ — University of Edinburgh
- University of Edinburgh — Approved universities in non-majority English speaking countries or territories (non-MESC) (page published 14 January 2026, read 2026-09-05). 'We accept degrees that are taught and assessed entirely in English from these universities as meeting our English language entry requirements.' India lists 31 named institutions and carries its own rule — 'We have approved the named university only. Affiliated colleges and other related institutions are not covered, and an English language test is still required.' Nigeria lists 8 (Ahmadu Bello, Covenant, Obafemi Awolowo, Abuja, Ibadan, Ilorin, Lagos, University of Nigeria/UNN). NEGATIVE RECORDED: neither Pakistan nor Bangladesh appears anywhere on the list. Several European countries instead carry a blanket acceptance for any recognised university teaching in English, subject to a confirmation letter. ↗ — University of Edinburgh
