APPLICATION DEADLINES AND EARLY BIRD OFFER

The program starts in September. Due to our rolling admission process, you may apply anytime for the next program start in September 2020. Applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis until the school has selected the optimum cohort. Since there are only limited places available, we strongly encourage you to apply as early as possible.

If you apply by the first early bird reduction deadline (November 30th), you will benefit from a € 3,000 reduction of your tuition fee. Your tuition fee will be reduced by € 1,000 if you apply by the second early bird reduction deadline (March 31st).

When does the admission process commence, and i don't have any international experience that is going out of country but have worked with foreign professionals. Am I still eligible

Narenn · Answer

Although int'l experience is generally preferred, it's not eligibility factor. You can still apply even if you don't have int'l experience. School just wants to know whether you are comfortable working with people from different countries/cultures.

Hi guys,

I have submitted my video presentation at late night on 15th Nov 10:30pm as per German timing. They asked me to send it latest by 15 Nov. I have not heard anything from them since then. How long does is usually takes for them to evaluate or revert. Do they send a regret mail if not selected for further round. Bit anxious! ANy guidance will be helpful.

Hi, I recently got an admit from Mannheim. Below is a brief of my experience with the admission:
I started early, Oct 1st week was when I submitted my application. Within a week I got the request for submission of video presentation. Post that I waited for a good month and a half to receive my first selection interview invite. Had my second selection interview 3 weeks after that but I received the final confirmation within 3 days post the interview.

Interview experience:
1st selection: It was mainly about my motivation to join Mannheim, why Germany, why MBA, why now and a bit about my work experience and the type of work that I have done so far. This was with the admissions officer.
Final interview: This was with someone from the career cell. This included a case study (that I received about a week before the date of interview) and questions to assess my motivation and whether I would fit in the German job market post-MBA. Whether I have thought of it and to what extent.

Hope this helps and I would definitely like to connect with other applicants. 
PS: I am not very active on the forum, there might be some delay in response.
