While work experience would be an added advantage, no prior work experience is required to be eligible for entry into the MBA International program. You will need to satisfy the general admissions requirements of the program, which are as follows: A minimum 2.2 Honours degree from a British university or equivalent overseas institution in any subject. Third Class Honours or Ordinary degrees may be considered on a case-by-case basis. A professional qualification at the graduate level in an appropriate field of study. A pre-masters program approved by Birmingham City University. In recognition that you may already have a relevant professional qualification, Accreditation of Prior Experiential Learning (APEL) may be accepted for entry into the course. Exemptions to individual modules and/or stages may also be given on a case-by-case basis. In some cases, students may be admitted to the next level such as Postgraduate Diploma. Other qualifications will be considered on a case-by-case basis. If you are a mature student but do not fulfill the standard entry requirements outlined above, your application will also be considered. Holders of a 3 or 4-year Bachelor's degree with 55% overall (50% from top universities) will be considered for direct admission to Postgraduate Diploma, MBA, or Master’s Degree courses, however, some programs will require a higher grade. All Business School undergraduate Year 1 courses require Mathematics minimum of Grade C at O Level or the equivalent.
