Eligibility and documents

MBA admission requirements to verify

Siam's published 2024 MBA curriculum document describes a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution as an academic qualification and outlines entrance-exam and transfer routes. The current International MBA page lists the documents expected with an application. Because admissions rules may be revised, treat the curriculum document as background and ask the program office for the criteria currently used for your intake.

  • Bachelor's degree certificate and academic transcript
  • International passport copies for applicants applying from abroad
  • Statement of purpose and two recommendation letters
  • Non-criminal record and recent photographs
  • TOEFL, TOEIC or IELTS result, if available; ask what evidence is accepted
  • Any application, interview or entrance-examination materials requested by the MBA office
The current MBA page says test results may be submitted “if available,” while the curriculum document states an applicant should be proficient in English or Chinese and may take an entrance exam. Confirm the language of instruction for your cohort, English evidence, exemptions and any foundation courses before applying.
