Start your application

Five steps from your college credits to a Swiss BA with a Robert Gordon University degree attached — starting with an individual review of your transcript.

How it works

Five steps to Switzerland

  1. Apply online

    Start here, then upload your documents — transcript (or proof of work experience) and proof of English.

  2. Credit review

    Admissions reviews your transcript individually and confirms your entry year — Year 2 or Year 3. A provisional acceptance is possible while transcripts are on the way.

  3. Reserve your place

    You receive a Letter of Acceptance; the reservation fee (payable within 10 days) secures your place for the intake.

  4. Visa

    BHMS issues every document you need for the student visa. Processing takes time — apply well ahead of your intake.

  5. Fly

    Your first airport pick-up is already inside the fee.

Direct-entry requirements

  • Minimum 18 years of age
  • Completed at least one year of equivalent training or two years' work experience
  • English at IELTS 5.5 or equivalent — the Preparatory English Programme bridges the gap below that

BHMS runs multiple intakes through the year; Year 3 direct entry is limited to selected intakes. Visa processing takes time, so apply well ahead of your target start. BHMS does not guarantee that academic credits from other institutions will be accepted. Every transcript is reviewed individually.

Application form

Takes about two minutes — then the fit check fills in the rest, one question at a time.

No payment with this form. Fees follow your Letter of Acceptance — the reservation fee is payable within 10 days of receiving it, and the first-year fee upon visa approval.
