Once we have received your complete application, you are invited to an intake interview on campus with our MBA director. To prepare well for the intake interview, go through your application documents and make sure you can touch upon elements that might have remained unclear. Also take a look at the content of your motivational letter and see if it adds value to elaborate a bit more on your motivations and arguments for joining MaastrichtMBA.

As a final advice, please note that the intake interview serves to add a face to the application file and learn more about the person behind the documents, so please don’t fear the interview too much. We won’t bite, on the contrary, we are very keen on welcoming you at Maastricht University!

After your application documents have been submitted and the intake interview has taken place, the MBA Admission Committee will carefully review your application and reach a conclusion. The Committee is an independent panel of experienced academics and practitioners who will provide a binding advice to the MaastrichtMBA Office. The Office contacts you as soon as the advice has been provided. Usually the assessment process takes 2-3 weeks to complete.
