STEP TWO
Once we have received all your documents and reviewed your application, our Admission office will send you an email titled "OFFER LETTER" (which is just an email). This signifies that you have met the qualifications for your chosen program. However, to secure your place, all students must pay a registration fee (can be found on fees page). Once paid, this fee will be forwarded to the Head of Admission for final approval.
Please be aware that our Offer Letter is valid for only 14 days. Failure to submit the registration fee within this timeframe may result in the inability to guarantee your place. Given the high volume of daily applications and our limited capacity, prompt action is essential to secure your spot at ISBM Switzerland.
STEP THREE
Upon receipt of the Registration fee, within 3 working days, we will issue an "OFFICIAL LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE." This letter secures your place to study at our institution. Occasionally, you may be required to pay a portion of the study fee upon receiving this letter.
It's important to note that the first-year fee must be settled 2-4 weeks before the intake date. Subsequently, we will provide you with comprehensive study materials and instructions on accessing our virtual classrooms. Typically, our study programs are scheduled from Friday to Sunday.

At the ISBM Switzerland, our admissions process is rigorous, ensuring that each applicant's academic readiness is thoroughly evaluated.
