Peking University Guanghua Global MBA admissions

Guanghua’s Global MBA is a two-year, full-time, English-taught programme in Beijing. Its 2027 international admissions notice sets five application deadlines, from October 25, 2026 to April 15, 2027. Before September 2027 matriculation, applicants need at least three years of post-graduation work experience after a bachelor’s degree, or two years after a master’s or doctoral degree; the notice also describes a deferred-entry provision for applicants who do not yet meet that requirement.

What to know first

  • Five verified round deadlines span October 2026–April 2027.
  • Experience is measured after graduation and before September 2027 matriculation.
  • An interview-stage decision is distinct from the university’s final offer.

Choose a round using the 2027 calendar

The official international admissions notice gives the following application deadlines. The image table does not specify a time-of-day cutoff; confirm that detail in the application system before submitting.

The table places decision releases by mid-November 2026, mid-December 2026, mid-January 2027, late March 2027 and late April 2027 respectively. It separately places the official admission package in mid-July 2027 and enrollment in September 2027. Build your preparation schedule around the application deadline, while keeping these later stages distinct.

  • Round 1: October 25, 2026.
  • Round 2: November 29, 2026.
  • Round 3: January 3, 2027.
  • Round 4: March 7, 2027.
  • Round 5: April 15, 2027.

Check the degree and experience requirement together

The international notice requires a bachelor’s degree or above from an institution accredited by China’s Ministry of Education. Bachelor’s applicants need at least three years of post-graduation work experience before September 2027 matriculation; applicants with a master’s or doctoral degree need at least two years. Calculate the period from the relevant graduation date rather than from the start of your studies.

The notice allows applicants who do not yet meet the experience requirement to apply. If admitted, their offer may remain effective until the academic year in which they meet it, and becomes void if they do not enroll that year. Confirm how this provision applies to your own degree and employment chronology with admissions before treating a later start as settled.

Check whether full-time study fits your professional plan

Consider what you want to change through the degree: the decisions you want to make, the responsibilities you want to take on or the knowledge you need to develop. Compare those goals with the current programme offering, verifying specific modules and opportunities rather than assuming that every MBA provides the same experience.

Also build a practical attendance plan. Estimate your personal time commitments, the effect of leaving or pausing work and the questions you need answered about funding and living arrangements. These are your planning considerations, not additional university admission rules. Keep confirmed costs separate from estimates and do not treat a possible scholarship as committed funding.

Prepare evidence of your own contribution

Choose a few professional experiences that you can explain in depth. Write down the situation, the decision you faced, your role, the action you took and the result. Where work was shared, specify what you personally contributed. If a result fell short, explain what you learned without trying to turn every experience into a success story.

Use this evidence to make your application coherent across documents and later conversations. A CV entry, statement example and interview explanation should describe the same underlying event consistently. Ask possible referees whether they know your work well enough to give specific examples, while following the current programme’s rules for who may recommend you and how recommendations must be submitted.

Keep application stages distinct

The checked 2027 notice distinguishes interview-related stages from the university’s final offer. Reaching one stage should therefore be recorded accurately in your own planning. Do not describe an invitation, assessment result or school-level communication as a final admission decision unless the official document says that it is.

After confirming the current round, work backward from its deadline and complete external document requests first. Before submitting, check the applicant category, programme selection, required evidence and live portal instructions. Save the application and confirmation, then track any follow-up request separately. For comparisons with another university’s MBA, use a table of verified facts and unanswered questions rather than filling gaps with the other programme’s rules.
