T-minus 31 days.

Round 1 applications for the Hitotsubashi ICS MBA (Class of 2027) open on July 31.

Hitotsubashi ICS calls its mission the "Best of Two Worlds" — training leaders who can move comfortably between East and West, global and local, old and new. The program is designed as a leadership development journey: small class sizes, close mentorship, and coursework that helps students find their own leadership style before they graduate.

The application requires a GMAT or GRE score, essays, transcripts, and references. These take time to prepare well, so the next 31 days matter more than the deadline itself.

If you've been considering an MBA in Japan, now is the time to start preparing.

Send us a message if you'd like a breakdown of what the application package requires.

Apply to the Hitotsubashi ICS MBA Program, meet admission criteria, and learn about the application process and scholarship opportunities for 2027 intake.
