BI Norwegian Business School OMPT Requirements: Bachelor of Data Science for Business
BI Norwegian Business School applies its OMPT requirement to one specific program among its bachelor's offerings, with a clearly stated score and attempt limit published directly on its own admissions page.
The requirement
BI's Bachelor of Data Science for Business requires OMPT, type F, with a minimum passing score of 60%, and allows a maximum of two attempts per intake.
Which BI programs don't require it
BI's BBA and its Bachelor in Digital Business do not carry a formal OMPT requirement, although the university describes strong math skills as "recommended" for these programs. If you're applying to one of these two programs rather than Data Science for Business, this specific requirement doesn't apply to you directly — though building solid math fundamentals is still worthwhile advice for either program.
"Per intake" — a detail worth understanding
BI's two-attempt limit is specified per intake, which suggests (though the page doesn't spell this out explicitly) that the cap may reset for a later intake if your first two attempts in a given cycle don't succeed. If your plans depend on this detail, confirm directly with BI admissions how the per-intake limit interacts across different application cycles.
Preparing for OMPT-F at a 60% bar
OMPT-F appears at several other institutions in this series at similar or slightly higher thresholds — VU Amsterdam's International Business Administration program accepts OMPT-F at 60% as an alternative to OMPT-A at 65%, for comparison, suggesting a broadly consistent difficulty calibration for this variant across the institutions that use it.
