The GPA requirements depend on where you obtained your bachelor's degree:


  • Dutch research university (WO): a minimum GPA of 7.0 is required for the premaster. If you intend to continue to MSc Finance & Investments, you need a minimum GPA of 7.3.
  • Dutch university of applied sciences (HBO): a minimum GPA of 7.3 is required for the premaster.
  • Bachelor's degree from outside the Netherlands: we expect an above-average GPA within your education system but more importantly you are required to submit a minimum GMAT score of 565 is required.


For applicants with a Dutch degree, a GMAT score cannot compensate for an insufficient GPA.


Please note that MSc Finance & Investments and MSc International Management / CEMS are selective programmes. Applicants are ranked based on their GPA (or GMAT), so meeting the minimum GPA requirement does not guarantee admission.
