๐จ IMPORTANT: The Final Push for Corvinus Applications โ Your Candidates Need This Now!
Time is running out! If you are currently referring high-potential applicants to Corvinus University of Budapest for the upcoming intake (e.g., the September 2026 intake), the final application deadline is rapidly approaching. Waiting means risking your candidate missing out entirely.
๐ Why the Urgency?
Corvinus is one of Central Europe's most sought-after institutions for Business, Economics, and Social Sciences, and the admissions process operates on a strict timeline, particularly for international students who require visas.
-
Visa Processing Time: For successful international applicants, the decision letter is the first step toward a visa. Visa interviews and processing in many countries can take 6-12 weeksโif the application is submitted late, the student may not receive their visa in time to start the semester in September.
-
Program Seats Filling: Popular English-language programs like MSc Finance and BSc Business and Management fill up quickly. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, meaning late submissions compete for the few remaining places, often against applicants with similar qualifications.
-
Entrance Exam Scheduling: Late applicants often face limited availability for the mandatory online entrance exams or interviews. Missing the final deadline for scheduling these events means automatic rejection.
๐ Critical Deadlines to Share with Your Candidates
While we always recommend the Early Bird window, here is the crucial final timeline for self-funded international students:
| Action | Recommended Final Date | Consequence of Missing |
| Online Application Submission | Mid-August | Application portal closes; no exceptions. |
| Entrance Exam/Interview Completion | Late August | No enrollment possible for the current academic year. |
| Tuition Payment Due | Early September | Enrollment is canceled; the seat is forfeited. |
๐ The Bottom Line: Urge your applicants to finalize their submissions on the DreamApply platform and prepare their supporting documents (transcripts, English proof, CV, etc.) within the next two weeks.
Next Step: Please confirm with your candidates that they have scheduled their mandatory entrance examination or interview immediately upon submitting their application!
