While displaying a remarkably wide range of backgrounds and experiences, successful INSEAD MBA candidates are distinguished by academic excellence, international awareness, strong interpersonal skills and the potential to succeed as a leader in a competitive business environment.
INSEAD admits two classes per year, each comprising nearly 450 students and representing over 70 nationalities. Around 300 participants start on the Europe campus in Fontainebleau, France, and 150 participants start on the Asia campus in Singapore. Participants can change campuses during the programme: see Campus Exchange.
We operate a staged admissions process with three rounds for the January intake and four rounds for the September intake. You may apply for any round, depending on when you have your completed application pack ready. Competition for each round is relatively equal, so there is generally little advantage to be gained by early application. Whenever you apply, please make sure that you submit a complete and well-prepared application pack. |
