Program overview
A one year MBA covering strategy, leadership, corporate finance, marketing, operations and organisational behaviour, with a consultancy style capstone project applying the whole programme.
Master of Business Administration is recorded at GBP 19,000, above the standard UWL master fee, and no GMAT or GRE is required, which removes a barrier many MBA applicants expect.
Master of Business Administration is taught at the University of West London, a UK university with degree awarding powers. Because Master of Business Administration is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after Master of Business Administration ends, or three years for a doctorate. To claim it after Master of Business Administration you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. One limit applies to Master of Business Administration as to every taught course in Britain: the rules introduced in January 2024 stop taught students bringing a spouse or children as dependants, so Master of Business Administration cannot support a family move.
Applicants to Master of Business Administration need a bachelor degree with a minimum of 65 percent. The English requirement is IELTS 6.5 with no band below 5.5, and tuition for Master of Business Administration is recorded at GBP 19,000 a year. UWL charges no application fee, so applying for Master of Business Administration costs you nothing. No scholarship is recorded against Master of Business Administration. Master of Business Administration lists several entry windows a year, which gives real flexibility on timing. Apply Study Visa manages the Master of Business Administration application, the deposit, the offer, the CAS and the UK student visa as one process.
