Required Materials

Applicants must hold a bachelor’s degree or equivalent.

Applicants must also complete an online assessment as part of the application.

Nationals of non-majority English speaking countries who have not completed a degree in a majority English speaking country must provide either an official letter from your institution stating you have successfully completed a full-time degree-level course of a minimum of nine months at a recognized institution where the medium of instruction and assessment was entirely in English, or transcripts from your institution, which clearly indicate that the medium of instruction was English. Otherwise, the candidate must submit score reports from either the TOEFL, IELTS, or the Cambridge Certificate (C1 Advanced).

When does Oxford Saïd Issue Invitations to Interview?

Interviews are by invitation only shortly after review of a completed application. Interviews will be conducted by either a faculty member, senior member of the administrative staff, or an industry adviser. Interviews can take place in Oxford, overseas (subject to availability), or via Zoom.

The Oxford MBA admissions interviews last approximately 30 minutes with questions focusing on candidates’ background, aspirations and how the MBA program is a good fit. The adcom recommends preparing for this interview as one would for a job interview and be ready to provide more information about any aspect of one’s application.
