The Process

Four practical steps. No ambiguity.

01

Prepare the application file

Gather the required documents, including identity, transcript, CV, recommendation letter, and proof of English where applicable.

02

Submit online

Complete the electronic application form and upload the full file through the public application page.

03

Attend the interview if shortlisted

Shortlisted applicants are invited to a short teleconference interview as part of the committee review process.

04

Receive the decision and next steps

Successful applicants receive a letter of acceptance together with guidance on legalisation, translation, and enrolment formalities.

What you submit

A complete file built around documented evidence.

The application requirements in the Study Guide are explicit. Nothing is hidden: identity documents, academic records, language proof, and any relevant professional evidence all feed into the final evaluation.

Degree certificates and transcripts will need to be Apostilled or legalised and officially translated if you are accepted. Completing this step early can speed up post-offer administration, but it is not required before initial submission.

The full application is submitted online through the public application page on this website.

A single recommendation letter is listed in the Study Guide as part of the formal admissions file.

Required
Additional supporting documentation

Applicants may attach extra documentation that helps the committee understand their preparation and profile.

Optional
Before Enrolment

Two administrative points to get right early.

The Study Guide highlights two practical issues that matter immediately after admission: document legalisation and early planning for international-student administration.

Official documents

Apostille / translation

Graduation certificates and transcripts need to be Apostilled or legalised and officially translated after admission where required.

  • Degree certificateRequired if admitted
  • Full transcriptRequired if admitted
  • TranslationOfficial only

International applicants

Plan early for visa steps

If you are coming from outside the EU, the visa and residence-permit process should begin promptly after admission because these formalities can take time.

  • Residence permitAfter arrival

Who Should Apply

A strong fit is defined by readiness and purpose.

The Study Guide presents the programme as suitable both for recent graduates and for professionals who want to update their expertise for a data-driven financial environment.

Open to diverse backgrounds
Graduates from multiple disciplines

The programme is suitable for university degree holders with diverse academic backgrounds, not only accounting or finance graduates.

Designed for professionals too
Practitioners updating for the AI era

Professionals in accounting, auditing, and financial management who want to update their expertise for a data-driven workplace are explicitly addressed in the Study Guide.

Internationally accessible
Greek and international applicants

Both Greek nationals and international students are eligible, and the degree is delivered in English in hybrid format.

Questions, answered

What applicants usually need to clarify first.

Do I need an accounting or finance undergraduate degree?

No. The Study Guide states that the programme is suitable for degree holders with diverse academic backgrounds, provided they can support their application through the required documentation and selection process.

Is professional experience mandatory?

No. Evidence of professional experience is listed “if any”, which means it can strengthen an application but is not a formal prerequisite.

Can an English-speaking bachelor's degree replace the B2 certificate?

Yes. Candidates who have completed an English-speaking bachelor's degree are exempt from the separate English-language proof requirement.

When do Apostille or official translations become necessary?

The Study Guide explains that degree documents will need to be Apostilled or legalised and officially translated if you are accepted. Doing so earlier may speed up the process, but it is not required before submission.

What happens after I submit my file?

Once the application is received, it is processed by a selection committee. Shortlisted candidates are invited to a short teleconference interview. If successful, they receive a formal letter of acceptance and next-step guidance.

Is there any preparation before classes begin?

Yes. Before the start of the MSc, students are asked to complete an intensive asynchronous preparatory training in mathematics and statistics, accounting, economics and finance, and programming.
