INSEAD, France MBA programme
There are no hard and fast rules as to when is the right time to apply. Some applicants apply after four or five years of work experience, whilst others after just two or three years of experience. In general, applicants will have demonstrated solid achievements and dynamic career progression. Ultimately, you will know when you are ready to take this next step in your professional and personal development.
INSEAD admits two classes per year, each comprising nearly 500 students and representing over 80 nationalities. Around 300 participants start on the Europe campus in Fontainebleau, France, and around 200 participants start on the Asia campus in Singapore.
Admission Criteria
All applicants must take the GMAT or the GRE, both of which provide a uniform and standardised way of evaluating candidates and it is in your interest to prepare thoroughly. While we do not have a minimum score required for admission, we advise candidates to aim for a score at or above the 70-75th percentile for both the quantitative and verbal sections of the GMAT and a percentile of 75-80th or above for the quantitative and verbal sections of the GRE. Please keep in mind, however, that standardised tests are just one of several admission criteria. A high score does not guarantee admission, and a below average score does not eliminate a candidate.
In such cases where an applicant has taken both the GRE and the GMAT, he or she must report both scores as part of the application.
Tuition & fees
Tuition fees for the September 2011 and January 2012 entries amount to €56,000.
FAQs
Work Experience?
INSEAD does not have an absolute requirement for years of work experience, although at least two years is preferred. Participants in our current class have an average of nearly six years work experience, with the range being between two and ten. However, applicants with less experience who demonstrate exceptional maturity and outstanding leadership through their professional and personal experiences will also be considered.
