The application must include one reference from a supervisor, which will be automatically sent to the referee indicated on the application form. Applicants must submit GMAT or GRE scores, responses to essay questions, and the £165 application fee.
When does Cambridge Judge Issue Invitations to Interview?
Based on LiveWire reports, applicants have been invited to interview at Cambridge Judge Business School within three to six weeks of the respective deadline, sometimes faster in later rounds. Interviews may be conducted on campus or virtually. Cambridge Judge also hosts a Virtual Interview Day during each round. For the 2026-2027 admissions season, these special days land on: September 25th, November 6th, February 12th, April 16th and May 28th. During a given Virtual Interview Day experience, interviewees meet the MBA admissions team, connect with the careers team, network with fellow interview candidates, and hear directly from current students and alumni in a dedicated Q&A panel.
The Admissions Committee will notify candidates of a conditional offer within three weeks of their interview date. Admissions must be informed of a candidate’s decision within three weeks, and if accepted, a commitment of 15% of the program fee and a financial guarantee that the costs of the program can be paid are required before an unconditional offer is extended.
MBA Applywire
I took the GMAT in May of this year (Focus Edition) and now I'm beginning to research whether an MBA is right for me. School selections were kind of a shot in the dark. I want to end up in corporate leadership in Atlanta area long-term, still not sure if the consulting route or just a higher level corp dev/strategy role post-MBA would be more conducive to that. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Outside or work I volunteer for a local housing advocacy group, the neighborhood civic association, and a pro-bono consulting group for nonprofits.

Hi! I'm applying to the above schools & I'm hoping to be admitted somewhere with significant scholarship. I currently have 2Y 9 months YOE and was promoted twice at a BB bank (from analyst > associate > AVP) during that time period (also part of an LDP).
Had to step away in March for family caregiving duties, and I'm currently looking for another role, so I will enter the MBA at about 3.5-4 YOE.
I'm a female LGBTQ+ applicant, from SEA, though of Indian origins.
TIA!
