The Process
The MSx Program brings together a diverse cohort of highly talented leaders from around the world. We do this through a highly selective admission process.
Our application cycle is divided into various rounds. You can apply in any round of the cycle, but early applicants have a better chance of being accepted into the program. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the MSx Class of 2021 start date has been moved from July 2020 to January 2021. As a result, we have added Round 0, which provides a path for students who want to start their education in January 2021. The other rounds will be for the July 2021 start date.
Our program size is flexible, and we are committed to admitting all qualified candidates regardless of the round. You can submit only one application per year, and this year we are offering five application rounds. The process is competitive so it is important to submit your application when your resume, testing, essays, and recommendations are complete and reflect your best efforts.
MSx applicants who are admitted in Round 0 will start the MSx Program in January 2021. All other applicants who are admitted will start the MSx Program in July 2021.
