Admission Procedures
Candidates are admitted to MsM on a competitive basis. To apply for the MBA program, please fill out our online application form.

In order to complete the application process we also need the following documents:
• Copies of bachelor/master degree
• Academic transcripts
• Proof of English proficiency
• Two reference letters
• Personal Resume
• Motivational Letter

All letters and documents must be submitted in, or accompanied by certified translations in English, the official working language at MsM.

As soon as we have received your online application we will provide you with the details of how to submit the required documents and the non-refundable application fee of € 75.

Applications are processed immediately on receipt. However, the deadline for applications is June 1st of the respective year in which the candidate wishes to enroll. Each application will be processed on an individual basis. The Graduate Admissions Board will make a decision based on the candidate’s prior academic performance, work experience and overall achievements and goals. We will inform you of the Admissions Board's decision as soon as possible.

MsM reserves the right to withdraw an offer of admission if candidates fail to satisfy all requirements or if it is determined that admission was obtained through the use of falsified, altered or embellished information.

Transfer Credit
MsM welcomes applicants for transfer admission, in particular to the Integration and/or Focus Segments of the MBA Program. Acceptance to MSM as a transfer participant is based largely on the Graduate Admission Board’s evaluation of the participant’s previous academic record. Transfer credit is granted for comparable academic work at other institutions.

Normally, participants interested in transferring to MSM must meet the following requirements:
• Submit a completed application with a € 75 application fee which is   non-refundable and covers all administrative expenses;
• Provide two reference letters;
• Provide official university transcripts;
• Submit a catalog from the previous institution attended.

Deferment Policy
It is possible to defer your admission if you are unable to attend the program. If you want to do so, please contact us as soon as possible at admissions@msm.nl. We will then reserve a place for you in the next intake. Please note that deferment is only possible for two years. You are not required to deposit another € 75.

If you do not enroll during the two year period, you will have to file a new application and pay the application fee again.
Refund Policies

If you withdraw from the Program after the admission letter has been sent but prior to obtaining all visa requirements, only the application fee of € 75 will be due.

Should you withdraw from the Program after admission has been granted and the tuition fee has been paid, the tuition fee will be returned. However, € 300 will be deducted from this fee to cover administrative costs. Visa costs (€ 250) are not reimbursed in any situation.
If your visa application is not successful, the tuition fee paid will be refunded. An amount of € 300 plus the costs of your visa (€ 250) will be deducted from the tuition fee to cover administration costs.

If, during the foundation segment of the Program, you decide to withdraw from the Program and choose not to take another course at MsM, you will receive a refund for the remaining segments of the academic year.
If you decide to withdraw during the remainder of the Academic Year you will not receive a refund, regardless of the reason for your withdrawal.

Obtaining a Visa
Candidates who are citizens of the member states of the European Union, do not need a visa to study in the Netherlands. Candidates who are citizens of countries other than the member states of the European Union need to apply for a visa. We will assist these candidates in obtaining their visa through our Student Affairs Office.

Financial Suspension
All academic services will be withheld for participants who are in financial default with MsM. No diplomas or transcripts will be issued until outstanding fees have been paid in full.
