What entry requirements should a career changer check before applying for a postgraduate business conversion course?
Before applying, check the course’s required degree level and grades, whether any subject background or quantitative preparation is expected, English-language requirements, and whether work experience is required or only relevant. Also review accepted qualifications, application documents, references, personal statement, interviews, and any visa or professional requirements that apply to you.
Key points
- Confirm how your degree, non-traditional qualifications, or professional experience will be assessed.
- Check whether the course expects mathematics, statistics, computing, or other subject knowledge, and whether preparatory study is available.
- Note application deadlines and whether documents must be translated, certified, or submitted through a particular system.
Things to check
- Requirements vary by university, course, country, and academic year, so rely on the current official course and admissions information.
- A conversion course may welcome applicants without a business degree, but this does not necessarily mean that no prior academic or quantitative preparation is required.
