You must hold a relevant Bachelor’s degree (minimum 180 ECTS or equivalent) from a recognised university or higher education institution to be eligible for LBS Master’s programs such as International Management and Leadership or Strategic Finance & Business Analytics. Applicants who have not completed their degree yet may submit a document confirming the expected completion and number of credits earned so far, but the final Bachelor’s diploma must be provided before classes begin.

English Language Proficiency: Because LBS postgraduate programs are taught in English, proof of English proficiency at C1 level is required unless your Bachelor’s was fully conducted in English. Accepted certificates include TOEFL, IELTS, or Cambridge English certificates meeting LBS’s specified minimum scores.

Application Components: Postgraduate applicants typically need to upload a set of documents through LBS’s online admissions portal, which include a curriculum vitae (CV), birth certificate, passport/ID copy, academic transcripts and diploma or equivalent certification, and proof of English proficiency. Depending on the program, you may also need to provide letters of recommendation.

Admission Process: After registering and submitting all required documents, Master’s and MBA applicants take part in a scheduled, proctored online essay or case study, followed by an online assessment interview with the Director of Studies or faculty. Completing all stages successfully is required for an offer of admission.

MBA Experience Requirement: For LBS’s online MBA/Executive MBA, in addition to holding a Bachelor’s degree, applicants may need professional work experience (often a couple of years) to support readiness for advanced management study — and must still demonstrate English proficiency.
