Admissions

The application portal for our Summer 2024 programs will open towards the end of 2023. Pre-register to be alerted when the portal opens. Qualified candidates will be offered admissions on a rolling basis until the programs are filled. We recommend applying early as some programs fill up fast.

Please note that for all programs that are being held on the HEC campus we are able to guarantee residence on campus for all participants who book their room when confirming their place. For the joint programs with TUM and EHL other arrangements have been made. Please consult the  Fees page for further details on accommodation.

To apply for a seat in up to two of our summer programs, please submit your application online with all supporting documentation. Please note, all programs entail a full-time committment, so participants can only attend one program per session.
