Guaranteed admissionThe EF Pre-Master’s and EF Pre-MBA Programs are ideal for non-native English speakers who wish to pursue a postgraduate degree at an English-speaking university. These programs will provide you with all the linguistic and academic skills necessary for postgraduate study.

Progress to your choice of universityWe can provide you with guaranteed acceptance to one of our partner universities offering Master’s or MBAs, once you successfully complete your program and gain a specific IELTS/TOEFL, or GMAT/GRE score (in North America). Not only do we guarantee placement at an EF partner university, we can also assist you with your application to apply to virtually any Master’s or MBA degree Program in your country of study or even in another country. Our EF Pre-Master’s and EF Pre-MBA alumni are now studying at Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, MIT and Thunderbird, to name just a few universities.

Enhance your qualificationsTo qualify for either program you must have a recognized bachelor’s degree (or the equivalent) and the English language skills required for this level of study. For students wishing to pursue an MBA, you will normally need at least two years work experience, but it is not essential since some of our partner universities accept successful EF Pre-MBA Program graduates with less than two years work experience.

A customized programThe EF Pre-Master’s and EF Pre-MBA Programs are flexible in length and can be customized, giving you the possibility to study for either six or nine months. We will help build the necessary language and study skills you will need to succeed in a demanding English-speaking academic environment. Following this, you will take specialist module classes in an academic area of your choice, to help prepare you for your postgraduate degree.

English and exam trainingOne of the goals of the EF Pre-Master’s and the EF Pre-MBA Programs is to help you perfect your specialized academic English. All university postgraduate programs require an official language proficiency score for international student admissions. These program help students achieve the highest possible scores and give you the confidence and knowledge to succeed in a competitive academic environment. Some of our Australian partner universities allow entry without taking TOEFL or IELTS after successful completion of the EF Pre-Master’s or EF Pre-MBA Program.

Specialist academic modulesIn addition to English language tuition, the EF Pre-Master’s and EF Pre-MBA Programs offer GMAT and GRE preparation (mandatory in the US) and a variety of specialist modules that include popular subjects such as: Business Management Statistics Tourism and Hospitality Advertising Media Studies Marketing Mathematics Law Sports Science Entrepreneurship Linguistics Science

Local industry experienceAlso included in the nine-month EF Pre-Master’s and EF Pre-MBA Programs in the UK and Australia is an optional, one-month internship, where you will have the opportunity to put your newly acquired knowledge to work in a local business. This hands-on training will be an invaluable addition to your CV and will enhance your career prospects when you begin seeking employment. By doing an internship you will have the opportunity to work in an international environment with native speakers and improve your level of English and understanding of industry-specific vocabulary.

Expert help with applicationsEvery EF University Preparation Abroad campus has a dedicated EF University Pathway Manager on-site to work with students’ study plans and application forms. They provide individual guidance and professional advice about applying to the university of your choice. They will help with the application process, prepare you for interviews, assist you with essays and make sure your applications meet the deadlines.
