EDINBURGH BUSINESS SCHOOL
Thank you for your interest in the EBS MBA/MSc/DBA programme. As you might have noted while
navigating our website (www.ebsglobal.net), Edinburgh Business School is the graduate school of
Business at the world-renowned Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh Scotland, United Kingdom.
Our MBA/MSc/DBA courses are very popular worldwide and the unique flexibility built into our
programmes has led to the impressive record of patronage we enjoy amongst young, middle and
senior level professionals and managers across 160 countries of the world. We currently have over
16,000 graduates and over 11,000 active students all over the world including Nigeria. Edinburgh
Business School has been listed for six years back to back( 2008-2013) as the largest provider of
distance learning MBA in the world (Financial Times top distance learning MBA listing, March 2008March 2013).
You can start any of the programmes in the EBS portfolio at anytime, study at your pace and
anywhere in the world and finish at anytime, study on your own or with support from a local partner,
study on campus, study part time or combine all study routes as you please.
The EBS programmes are predominantly distance learning and modular.
The course fee is 550 pounds per course (special discounted fee for African residents) and you have to
pass a total of 9 courses to achieve our general MBA or any of our suite of MSc courses. You may be

eligible for exemption in a number of courses depending on your previous academic and

professional qualifications. Exams are held four times in a year (March, June, August and December) in
about 360 exam locations around the world including Nigeria (British Council in Lagos, Port-Harcourt
and Abuja).

The exam fee is £125 (one hundred and twenty five pound sterling) per course, this in addition
to the course fee of £550 brings the total for each course to 675 pounds and thus the total course
and exam fees for 9 courses is
675x9=6,075 pounds , however if a candidate fails an exam, such a
candidate will have to pay a new examination fee to re-sit the failed exam.
There is also a flat fee of £25 being DHL shipment/delivery fee for your study packs irrespective of
the number of courses you are ordering per time. You can pay on a course by course basis.
Ideally, you can complete the distance learning programme in 2 years or less or more, it’s up to
you. There is no time limit imposed on you by the University.
No project work is required, no assignment is required, no hassles, you are assessed 100% via a final
examination in each course. When you make progress in your studies and you feel you are ready
for exam in one , two or more courses, you apply 3 months in advance and sit a 3-hour close-book ,
all questions compulsory hand-written examination in each course.
Exams hold in March (Lagos only), June (Lagos, Port Harcourt and Abuja),

August (Lagos only) and December (Lagos, Port Harcourt and Abuja) every year and are
handled purely by the University and the British Council at these locations .
The Pass mark in each examination is 50% and you receive a certificate of achievement for each
course passed as you progress and the main degree certificate during graduation in Edinburgh.
Every EBS student worldwide receives exactly the same certificate irrespective of the study route
taken. There is no mention of the study route on any certificate.
You will experience a quantum leap in your ability to understand, dissect and proffer credible solutions
to complex business problems facing you on your functional desk and your organisation at large,
furthermore, you will have the ability to make very informed judgement when faced with challenging
business and investment scenarios rather than just guessing around. This is the world- class MBA that
confers you with a world-class thinking ability and professional expertise much needed in today’s
advanced and dynamic world of business.
Our courses are written by prize-winning authors from the world's top business schools.
You are guaranteed an enriching, challenging and rewarding experience; the skills you acquire on
our programmes are excellent and readily applicable on your job.
In my humble opinion, a good MBA is a must for anyone aiming at the top of their professions or
personal businesses irrespective of the industry or sector. The generic business skills you
acquire give you a strategic advantage and can easily enhance your visibility to senior
management in any organisation within a short time. EBS is a truly international community
where you relate with people from all over the world.
Please do not hesitate to contact us for more details.
Thank you.
