What are the application requirements for doctorate programs? (DBA)
Updated at Feb 6, 2026, Viewed 0 times
To apply for our Doctorate programs, you need to meet the following requirements:
Academic Qualifications
You must have a minimum of a Master’s degree from a recognized institution to apply for any Master’s program.
No exceptions: Applicants without a Master’s degree must first enroll in one of our Master’s programs before becoming eligible for a Doctorate program. Please note that extensive work experience cannot be used in place of a Master’s degree.
Official transcripts or certificates verifying your previous education are required.
English Language Proficiency
Basic understanding of English is sufficient to enroll. You do not need to provide proof of English proficiency (e.g., IELTS, TOEFL, or equivalent).
How to Check the Status of My Application
As soon as your payment is confirmed, your application is considered successful, and you may begin your studies.
The background check (academic and work verification) can be completed during or after your studies, but it must be finalized before you can receive your official certificate and transcript.
It would not affect your learning progress without completing the background check before graduation. However, your certificate and transcript will only be issued once verification is complete.
If, after review, you do not meet the eligibility requirements for a Master’s program, we will recommend a suitable alternative certificate program so that your learning efforts are still recognized.
How do I know if I am eligible?
To ensure your eligibility for a Master’s program:
1. Log in to your Student Portal.
2. Navigate to your Profile Icon > User Profile > Profile
3. Make sure to update your Academic Background section with your degrees and qualifications.
4. Fill in your Industrial / Work Experience
5. Once updated, our system will verify your eligibility based on the information provided. You will be able to see the update
> The system will mark your status as “PENDING” until our verification team reviews your submission. If your submission is successful, the status will show “VERIFIED”
