How to apply
Seeking to advance your academic journey? Join the FALL 2026 cohort in September!
Step 1
Take the English Proficiency Test
Students must pass an international language exam to demonstrate their English proficiency. This can be an EduSynch, TOEFL ITP, TOEFL iBT or IELTS.
English testing is not necessary if your undergraduate or graduate studies were conducted in English (or from SSE and RGSL), or if English is your native language.
The necessary scores are the following:
| EduSynch | B2+ |
| TOEFL IBT | 70 |
| TOEFL ITP | 550 |
| IELTS | 6.0 |
We’ve found the EduSynch test to be the most convenient if you don’t already have other test results on hand. The test fee is 30 EUR, and it’s completed online. You can register for the EduSynch test by contacting the RBS Information Center at:
Dace Lēģere, MBA and EMBA Student Services, d[email protected]
