For Master’s: A relevant undergraduate degree, ideally with some work experience. Diploma programs have flexible entry routes — reach out to check your eligibility.

For Diplomas: Completed secondary education (Maturité, IB, Abitur, or equivalent). English proficiency (IELTS 5.5, TOEFL iBT 55, or equivalent) is required; otherwise, students may join the English Foundation Program.
