- Two References: References for our MBA program must come from individuals who are familiar with you well and who are qualified to remark on your professional and/or academic history. You must upload the referees' contact information (name, surname, and firm email address) using the automatic tool of the online application form. The referees will then get a link to a form that needs to be completed and sent to us.

This must include the type of degree, the date of graduation, the dates of enrolment, and grades for each subject using the grading system.

Only graduates of Italian universities are eligible to submit this self declaration.
- Application form: Only online and in English submissions are accepted for the application. It includes a number of short answer questions that were specifically created to aid in our understanding of your professional and personal experiences, as well as the motivations behind your desire to enroll in our MBA program.
- Pre-interview video: By incorporating your written application form, the pre-interview video helps us better grasp your profile. The online platform will walk you through the simple processes while you respond to a series of questions and film a video of yourself. The application form will be made accessible online along with a link to the platform. A prerequisite that comes before the admissions interview is the pre-interview video. It should be sent as part of the application process and, in any case, no later than a week after the online application has been submitted.
- Professional Experience, Detailed CV: MBA students typically have between 3 and 10 years of work experience, or an average of five years. If you don't meet this prerequisite, you can only be accepted if you have strong academic credentials, exam results, cross disciplinary talents, and motivation. You do not need to have conventional managerial experience, Instead, we are more interested in your potential for management, teamwork skills, and willingness to accept responsibility. Additionally, the type of experience you gained in that industry is more significant than the business sector or function.
- English language proficiency: Is required for all applicants because the MBA program is conducted fully in English. You must provide the results of the TOEFL, IELTS, PTE Academic, or CPE tests if English is not your first language. You can request that your findings be delivered directly to SDA Boccioni at the testing location (TOEFL School Code: 0698, PTE School Code: R7G-6R-23). You must send the original test results to the school if you have already taken one of these exams. Prior to January 2021, test results are no longer valid. For students who obtained their degree in English, have considerable professional experience in an English-speaking nation, or speak English as their mother tongue, a test result may be waived.
- GMAT or GRE: All applicants must take one of these exams. The Analytical Writing Assessment and the Integrated Reasoning are required components of the GMAT. The GMAT and GRE are two widely accepted English language exams that measure your verbal, analytical, and mathematical abilities. A good score is helpful throughout the admissions process even if there is no minimum score needed to be admitted. The School's name should be mentioned when taking the test so that our Admission Services can get the results straight away. Our MBA program's GMAT and GRE identification codes are 3WJ-L8-42 and 3710, respectively. Prior to January 2017, test results were no longer valid.
