The quality of the TiasNimbas International Full-Time MBA is partly based on the quality of the participants. Therefore admissions at TiasNimbas is competitive. If you are unsure if your profile fits the TiasNimbas MBA program we encourage you to send your CV to your program adviser Humphrey Sopakuwa for a quick assessment.
What you must have
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent from an accredited institution
- Solid GMAT* (average is 620)
- Minimum three years full-time work experience (average is seven years)
- Strong command of written and spoken English (TOEFL of 90/IELTS of 6.5 is required)
*A high GMAT score does not guarantee admission, just as a low score doesn't preclude admission. We accept students with lower GMAT scores if we believe this can be offset by stronger areas in one’s profile. Since we are such a very diverse school, we are keen to see whether you have worked, lived, studied abroad, or worked for an international company. So while a solid GMAT score is important, it is not necessarily a deal breaker.
