Frequently asked questions

Can I do an MBA in Germany without IELTS at BSBI?

BSBI lists IELTS 6.0 or an accepted equivalent such as TOEFL 80, PTE 56 or Duolingo 105. Some applicants qualify for an English-proficiency waiver based on prior English-medium education, but this is decided case by case — do not assume you are exempt. We can check your eligibility before you apply.

How many intakes does BSBI have?

BSBI runs four intake windows a year, which is more than most German institutions. That flexibility is useful if you have missed the September intake, though visa processing time still needs four to five months of lead time.

Who awards the BSBI degree?

BSBI delivers several programmes validated by partner universities rather than awarding all degrees itself. Always confirm the awarding body for your specific programme, since that determines how the qualification is recognised in India.
