Overview
Trinity Western University's MBA in International Business is a specialized stream of the university's MBA designed to be completed within eighteen months. The curriculum builds managerial and business skills with a global perspective, covering how to manage a global value chain, lead cross-cultural teams, and identify international business opportunities, through courses in global organization management, global economic competitiveness, international accounting and finance, and international business law. Students receive a personalized study plan on entry and typically take three courses each semester. Two delivery formats are offered: a weekend format, with classes on Thursday evening and all day Friday and Saturday across two consecutive weekends per course, and a one-week format, with classes held Monday to Thursday or Monday to Friday; both formats include pre-course and post-course assignments completed independently. The program is aimed at working professionals who want to complete an MBA focused on international business without stepping away from their careers, giving them scheduling options that fit around existing work commitments while still delivering a full graduate business curriculum with a global-management focus.
Requirements

Admission Requirements: Domestic applicants need a GPA of at least 3.0 based on the final two years of the undergraduate program; the GMAT is not required. Applications include an online form, official transcripts from all post-secondary institutions, two letters of reference (one academic, one from a manager or supervisor), a personal statement of 500-800 words, and a resume; some applicants are asked to complete an interview. Applicants whose first language is not English must present one of: IELTS Academic 7.0 overall (Writing/Reading at least 6.5, Speaking/Listening at least 6.0); TOEFL iBT 100+ overall (Writing/Reading at least 23, Speaking/Listening at least 20) for exams before January 21, 2026, or the redesigned TOEFL iBT scored 5+ overall (Reading/Listening/Speaking at least 4, Writing at least 4.5) for exams on or after that date; or Duolingo English Test 130 overall (Literacy/Comprehension at least 120, Conversation/Production at least 105).

Executive MBA applicants additionally need 10+ years of professional work experience with 5+ years in a managerial role.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Trinity Western sets a Fall Early Admission target of 1 March and a Spring Regular Admission deadline of 1 November for Canadian domestic applicants, with Fall Regular Admission continuing on a rolling, space-available basis after 1 March and final high-school transcripts due by 1 August; TWU prints these as recurring annual dates without a specific year. TWU's international (non-US) admissions page states no deadline of its own and refers applicants back to the same general page, so no international-specific closing date is published; TWU does separately publish Fall (15 January early, then rolling) and Spring (15 November) dates for the distinct US-citizen applicant category. Individual graduate programs set their own separate application windows. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
