 Step 5: Admission interview 

An oral interview (online) is scheduled with eligible applicants and carried out by a committee. The qualified applicant receives a guideline e-mail (on the e-mail address provided during the application process) approximately 5-7 days before the date of the admission interview. Shortly after, the applicant gets the actual MS Teams invitation with the link to join the meeting at the given time (be aware of the time zone differences). 

The interview takes approximately 10 minutes, and the committee will ask you about your background, future plans and motivation to choose us. About 10 minutes before your scheduled interview time, you will receive a short business-related article in an e-mail to the address you provided during the application. During the interview, you will be asked to summarize what you read in a few sentences, and the committee will have a couple of questions regarding its content. 

The committee might ask you additional questions; no previously set list exists.

In this case, you will be given a certain amount of time to submit the missing documents. After this is done, you will receive the "Acceptable" offer. 

If you cannot pass the admission interview, you will receive a "Failed" status, which means the application is rejected. The decision shall be without appeal. The decision shall be without appeal.
