In 2021 the Mathematics curriculum for the International Baccalaureate Diploma is changing.
After careful consideration, City will accept both the Mathematics: Analysis and approaches route and the Mathematics: Applications and interpretation route as equivalent to A-Level Mathematics for all of our undergraduate courses. This means where our courses required A level Mathematics equivalency, we will accept both of the available Higher Level routes within the International Baccalaureate.
Current IB requirements will be clearly stated on the individual course pages, but please contact us if you have any questions.
Applicants for postgraduate courses will need a Laurea degree from a recognised institution.
The MBA is a mid-career qualification which is not open to fresh graduates. Applicants must have a good first degree, a minimum of three years management level work experience and a GMAT score of 600 or above.
