Admissions process 

At Saïd Business School we expect our applicants to be exceptional. We will look for evidence that you have a genuine passion for finance, and that you have the enthusiasm and motivation to make the most of your time with us. The application is designed to let you showcase yourself to us. We do not mind if your biggest achievements are outside the world of business, or if your career to date has been unconventional. We are much more interested in the content of your character than the numbers on your pay cheque.  

Application process

1.  Candidates may apply online via Apply Yourself. The application fee is £100.
 
2.  Selected applicants will then be invited to interview. Not all successful applicants to the programme will have an interview.  In each stage the Admissions Committee will review all the complete applications received by the deadlines.  Candidates will be advised on the interview decision deadline whether they are being invited for interview, they are receiving a direct offer, or their application has been unsuccessful. 

Interviews can be conducted either in Oxford, or at a number of cities around the world. If necessary, we can conduct Skype interviews although our strong preference is for face-to-face interviews. All interviews are conducted by faculty who will be teaching the course.

3.  Candidates who receive an interview will be notified of their results on the final decision deadline date of the stage they have applied for.
