What does the Master programme with maximum capacity mean?
A master's program with maximum capacity means you can submit your application starting from 1 October until the maximum number of application has been reached or until the application deadline, whichever comes first. Once the program reaches its maximum capacity, no more applications will be accepted.
To be considered for admission, make sure to submit a complete application before the maximum number of applications has been reached. Applicants who meet the minimum requirements will receive admission offers on an ongoing basis. If a programme closes before you have taken any necessary standardized tests (such as GMAT or proof of English) you have until 31 January to submit your scores.
