IENYC is dedicated to nurturing forward-thinking individuals who can address the challenges of tomorrow. Our holistic admissions process is designed to ensure that each applicant's qualifications and interest in sustainability and social impact are thoroughly evaluated. Our master’s programs seek candidates who are highly motivated, creative, and distinguished by their remarkable personalities and interpersonal abilities, in addition to their academic and professional successes. We understand that talent is diverse, and our approach enables us to thoroughly assess candidates to create an outstanding and globally diverse student body.

We operate on a rolling admissions basis, meaning you can apply at any time. For international students, we highly recommend submitting the application a few months before the beginning of the program, to secure a visa in time. Timing will depend on each candidate’s nationality and their embassy’s process. Generally, for students starting in the spring intake (February), we recommend applications to be completed by October to secure a visa in time. Those beginning in the fall intake (September) should apply for their visa by April.
