Dates & Fees
MBA
The UCT MBA offers excellent value for money. It is priced fairly by South African standards, yet is ranked as one of the top programmes in the country. By international standards, the price is extremely competitive given the immense cost of an MBA programme in the US or Europe and the relative value of currencies. The UCT GSB MBA was rated as the 'Best value for Money' in the Financial Times Full Time MBA Global Top 100 ranking.
