For the 2026 intake, you’ll need a recognized bachelor’s degree (usually minimum 60 - 70% for Ireland, UK equivalent to 2:1 honors), and an overall IELTS score of 6.5 or higher (no band below 6.0 for most programs).

Application deadlines for September 2026 typically fall between late May and June 2026, but some universities may close earlier if seats fill. Key documents include academic transcripts, degree certificates, statement of purpose, letters of recommendation, CV, and passport copy.

Visa processing is required after receiving your offer and can take several weeks. Some programs may ask for work experience or GRE/GMAT scores.

If you haven’t applied yet, consider preparing for the January or September 2027 intake.
