Admission interview
The admissions interview is an important part of the EBS application process and provides an opportunity for both sides to get to know each other better.
Admission interview
You will be contacted to schedule the admission interview. The interview will be conducted in English and is around 20 minutes. Admission interviews take place once a month.
The aim of the interview is to get to know the applicant better. We expect you to share your story, your journey towards EBS, and your future aspirations.
We evaluate the admission interview based on 3 criteria:
- Motivation
- Ambition
- Argumentation skill
We encourage you to ask your questions about EBS during the interview.
We will inform you about admission interview result in 7 days.
If you successfully pass the admission interview you will be conditionally accepted:
- To get full acceptance we would need you to fulfill conditions that are brought out in the conditional acceptance letter. Once they are fulfilled we will issue a final acceptance letter.
