Eligibility criteria
Candidates should typically have a Bachelor's degree with a final overall result of at least First Class. Due to the number of different grading scales in use, candidates should upload a copy of the grading scale used by their institution, along with their transcript, when they submit their application. For the MSc Applied Economics and MSc Applied Economics with Banking and Financial Markets, candidates must have an undergraduate degree in a social science or business discipline. The rest of the courses expect an undergraduate degree in economics, business, or an appropriate quantitative subject – with candidates having good marks in at least five core economics units. It may be possible to consider applicants with an undergraduate degree in other subjects where there is substantial relevant professional experience. They must submit a personal statement with details about their relevant academic qualification, why they want to pursue the course, and outlining their future aspirations. The English language requirements are a minimum of either a 6.5 IELTS score with no less than 6.0 in all components, a Pearson Test of English Academic score of 62 with no less than 59 in any element, or a TOEFL IBT score of 90 overall with a minimum of 24 in the writing component and a minimum of 21 in all other components. Students that graduated within the last 5 years from an Indian university where the medium of instruction is English, and with at least 75% for English in their Indian 12th Standard examinations, may be able to submit evidence of this instead.
