Certificates and Transcript
At the time of application, transcripts and certificates of a first degree in a subject essential to the MAIB must be submitted (see admission requirements). Evidence of degrees earned in the semester prior to admission to the MAIB may be submitted at a later date at request. Students who are not yet able to present a Bachelor's degree certificate may only apply if they do not lack more than 40 ECTS points to succesfully complete your BA degree at the time of application. ***Important*** In case, you haven't got a full Bachelor degree yet, your university must calculate your current average grade so that we can determine your rank. It is essential that the average grade is shown on the documentation issued by your current university (on your Transcript of Records). Otherwise, your average grade will be automatically evaluated as 5.0, which means that there is practically no chance of a successful application.
