Erasmus Premaster Program

At the time of writing, Erasmus runs 15 tracks for its MSc in Business Administration, by far the most comprehensive market segmentation in the Netherlands. As with other Dutch Master degree programs, each can be completed in one year of full-time study. But the PreMaster program is highly competitive, admitting only 40 student per year to each of two possible tracks: Dutch and English.

DURATION & DEADLINES

The two tracks of the RSM PreMaster also take one year of full-time study. The application period is from mid October to mid May, and the start date is August 30th. The precise timeline and procedures can be found here.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Graduates of a Dutch Technical University (Hogeschool) must first follow the PreMaster program, which is offered in both English and Dutch tracks. A low GPA can be compensated for by a minimum 600 score on the GMAT exam.

LOCATION

The Erasmus PreMaster is run entirely on-campus, in an outlying district of Rotterdam known as Karlingenzone.
