Applications will be handeled in a batch after each deadline.

Deadline I: November 30th 2020 (strongly recommended for third-country nationals!)

Deadline II: January 30th 2021

Deadline III: March 30th 2021

There will be a selection process after each application deadline resulting in a list of nominations for the adminissions office. We strongly advise third-country nationals to use the first deadline, because admissions and visa procedures are quite complex and you are expected to start your studies in July 2021 (online) and September 2021 (on site). Admission until July is therefore required, whereas presence on site - and hence a visum - are required until September. Austrian and EU students can choose which deadline they apply for. If you secure a place earlier, you have the advantage of being able to plan your next steps more easily.

The process of entering your personal information means you will be asked to fill out an online form disclosing your personal information and then you will be asked to select your major. The procedure consists of two parts:

• Registration: Disclose your contact information and create a JKU Account
• Admission: Select your major and provide information about your educational background, etc.

Submit your application via the online form for the 2021/2022 academic year. If you need assistance, contact us via e-mail.

The application must include the following:

• Letter of Intent
• Current CV
• Certificates and academic transcripts
• A copy of your Bachelor's thesis
• Proof of required proficiency in English (Level C1)
• GMAT score* (min. 600 points, not older than two years) 

Important information regarding Certificates and academic transcripts:

• If you have not studied under the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System - ECTS system, please provide detailed explanations of your grading and credit system so that we can assess the hours you have spent on a particular module.

Important information regarding GMAT:

• If you do hold a degree from outside the European Economic Area (non-EEA degree) you must take the GMAT. 
• If you do not hold an undergraduate or graduate degree which provides sufficient knowledge in Business Administration you must take the GMAT. 
• The GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test) is a standardized, internationally recognized examination conducted around the world. Please note that you will need time to prepare for the examination (a minimum of 8 weeks; up to 6 months). Click here for detailed information.
