Master's & Postgraduate Study in Switzerland
A master's degree in Switzerland can deepen your expertise, open career doors, and — in many countries — include post-study work rights. Use this guide to plan a competitive postgraduate application.
- Entry requirements. Programs in Switzerland typically expect a relevant bachelor's degree, a solid GPA, proof of English, and — for business or quantitative fields — GRE or GMAT scores. Some also require work experience.
- Funding & scholarships. Look into university scholarships, government schemes, and assistantships. Funding is competitive, so apply early and prepare a strong statement of purpose.
- Deadlines & careers. Note application windows and any post-study work visa options, which can be a key factor when choosing a program and city.
Dream Uni supports your master's application in Switzerland — from choosing programs and funding to essays, references, and visas.
