Admission

Application

Applications can be handed in anytime as we operate a rolling admission process. However, we encourage students to apply as early as possible, as the admission to the MBA program at Kühne School is highly competitive. Applicants from non-EU countries also need to consider time for the visa process and allow for enough time to collect all documents and information required during the admission process.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your complete application reaches the admission department at the Kühne School in due time. Please contact our Admissions Office for information on application deadlines.

Application requirements

Candidates for the MBA program must comply with the following prerequisites:

• An above average university degree
• Relevant work experience (minimum 1 year)
• A profound knowledge of English
• A good GMAT-score

4. Evaluation (4-6 weeks)

Applications for the MBA Logistics Management Program will be examined by the admission board during the evaluation stage. Applications that do not match the formal criteria (complete set of certificates, transcripts, recommendations letters, essays etc.) will not be evaluated.

Admission for the MBA Logistics Management Program is based on individual qualification and strengths as stated in the applicants' documents. The Kühne School looks for highly motivated young professionals. Thus a certain personal profile as well as vision and work experience is an important criteria, too.

Interviews may be conducted on a case-to-case basis. In order to minimize the expenses and inconveniences caused to the applicants and at the same time get to know the candidate we arrange conference calls, video conferences or interviews together with our partners in local offices of international logistics companies or the DAAD. You do not have to apply for an interview. If necessary, we will inform you in time and make the necessary arrangements.

Complete applications will normally be processed within 4 - 6 weeks on receipt of complete application documents. Candidates will be informed by e-mail. In case of admission, candidates will receive the admission kit with all necessary documents for enrolment.

5. Admission - Start of program

In case of admission students must accept their place of study within a given deadline. Upon acceptance pre-departure preparations will start and the Kühne School will continue to assist you throughout this process. Please check our category services.
