University of Leeds MiM Application Deadlines

Management MSc · Leeds, UK

Verified against official sources · last checked September 2026 · see sources

Leeds publishes no application deadline for this course at all. Its own course page carries a start date — September 2027 — and one piece of timing advice, that "we recommend that international students apply as early as possible to ensure that they have time to apply for their visa"; there are no rounds, no stages and no cut-off date anywhere on the page.¹ That is a published silence rather than a missing page, and it is the honest thing to plan around: with no deadline to push against, the binding constraint is the visa calendar for a September start, not a date Leeds has set. The application itself asks for a degree certificate and transcript (or a partial transcript if you are still studying), contact details for two academic references, a personal statement, an up-to-date CV, your English test if applicable, and a sponsorship letter if you need one.¹ Line the cycle up against the schools that do publish rounds on our deadline tracker.

Exact dates for the upcoming intake are confirmed against the school's official admissions page as they are published.

Frequently asked questions

Do you need a GMAT for the Leeds Management MSc?
No — the GMAT is not required, and neither is the GRE. Leeds states the academic requirement in a single line: 'A bachelor degree with a 2:1 (hons) in any subject.' There is no subject condition in either direction, so a business degree is neither required nor a reason to be redirected elsewhere. English is IELTS 6.5 overall with no component below 6.0; applicants who fall short are routed to a six- or ten-week Language for Business pre-sessional rather than rejected, and Leeds allows you to apply before you have sat an approved English test.
When is the application deadline for the Leeds Management MSc?
There isn't one. Leeds publishes no application deadline for this course — no rounds, no stages and no cut-off date appear anywhere on its course page, which carries only a September 2027 start date and the advice that international students should 'apply as early as possible to ensure that they have time to apply for their visa'. In practice the binding date is the visa calendar for a September start rather than anything Leeds has set, so treat early application as the requirement the page implies rather than one it states.

TWO NEGATIVES RECORDED: the page publishes NO application deadline of any kind for this course — no rounds, no stages, no cut-off — and it serves ONLY the 2027 entry cycle; a ?year=2026 request returns the identical 2027 document, so the 2026/27 figures this profile previously carried (£32,750 international / £18,000 UK, read 2026-07-05) can no longer be re-checked at source and are quoted here as our own dated read rather than as a live figure. ↗ — University of Leeds
