Application process
Welcome to next phase of your professional life. It’s a transformative journey for exceptional people, like you. We look forward to meeting you.
Here are the steps of the application process:
- Step 1: Application submission
- Step 2: Application review
- Step 3: Interview for shortlisted candidates
- Step 4: Conditional offer
- Step 5: Unconditional offer
Application submission
Create your account on the Applicant Portal and fill out the Executive Master of Accounting application. You can save your application as many times as you like. Take your time and make sure you have all your supporting documentation ready to go before you submit.
Your application must be complete (including the receipt of all necessary supporting information) before it can be considered. There is an application fee of £150.
Application review
Our Admissions Committee will review your entire application in full and decide whether to shortlist you for interview.
Because of the volume of applications we receive, we cannot provide feedback on individual applications that are unsuccessful.
However, an admissions appeal can be made if you believe:
- there has been an administrative error
- you believe you have been treated unfairly because of bias or prejudice
- there are circumstances unknown to Cambridge Judge Business School that might have affected the decision.
Fraudulent applications
The University of Cambridge takes robust action against admissions fraud. If we find that fake documents or false information has been submitted, we will withdraw the application and any others made by the same person.
Interview for shortlisted candidates
Shortlisted candidates are invited to interview within 4 weeks of submitting their application. Interviews take place either via Zoom or in-person in Cambridge.
The interview lasts for 30 minutes and is conducted by one of the Executive Master of Accounting faculty. This is an opportunity for you to showcase the impact you have made in your current or previous positions. This is also our chance to explore your career aspirations and assess whether you’ll be a good fit for the programme.
Conditional offer
Within 2 weeks of your interview date, we will let you know if you have been successful.
We will ask you to confirm if you intend to accept your offer, within 4 weeks of receiving your conditional offer (or sooner if the final deadline for College applications is earlier).
Your offer of a place on the programme will be subject to conditions. We will give you access to the student enrolment portal, where you can read more about the conditions that need to be met before we can convert your offer to an unconditional one.
We will also ask you for a reservation fee of 15% of the programme fee (£7,350), and financial guarantees that you can meet the costs of the programme.
If you accept a conditional offer to the programme, we ask, as a matter of courtesy, that you inform the Admissions team if you are holding offers from any other programmes at Cambridge Judge Business School.
Unconditional offer
Once all conditions outlined in the student enrolment portal have been met, the Admissions team will apply to your top three College choices on your behalf. Once you have a Collage place confirmed, you receive your unconditional offer letter.
This is the final stage of the application process. You can now start preparations to attend your Executive Master of Accounting programme at the start of the academic year. Organise your visa application and finalise your living arrangements.
