Interview with the school
Once your application has been received, you will be contacted to schedule a formal interview with a senior member of the Enrolment team in order for us to understand your reasons for applying, your career plan and to ascertain if you are a suitable candidate for the program. The interview will be similar to a typical job interview.
Academic records
We will require a copy of your Bachelor’s degree final transcripts with courses completed and grades received. Provisional transcripts are acceptable for applicants who have not yet completed their studies and should show the last three years’ results. The transcripts should show all grades received, an explanation of the grading system in English or French and the estimated date of completion*.
A note about proof of English
If English is not your first language, or if you have not spent the last two years studying in an institution where English is the primary language of instruction, you must submit proof of your English language level and will be asked to provide a certificate. This is often a requirement for the visa process as well.
* You will be asked to bring your original transcripts and diploma/s with you to registration on campus as admissions will be checking authenticity during induction. If your final transcripts/ diploma are not in English, French, German or Italian, then a notarized/certified English translation is required as well. For London applicants, only final diploma transcripts will be accepted.
** Your passport must be valid for at least six months after the program has started.
