King's Business School partners with ATLAS SkillTech University to fast-track Indian students to London's top postgraduate programs
The collaboration creates an accelerated admission pathway for ATLAS students to pursue postgraduate programs at one of the UK’s most prestigious institutions.
In a significant boost for Indian students aspiring for global education, King’s Business School has announced a formal partnership with ATLAS SkillTech University in Mumbai.
Under the agreement, eligible ATLAS students will benefit from fast-track admissions, with a decision within three weeks and access to scholarships, covering up to 50% of tuition fees for select Master’s programs. There are also the advantages of no application fee and no reference requirement.
This marks the first official collaboration between the two institutions, building on years of close ties. The move comes as demand from Indian students for global business education continues to rise. King’s Business School has already recorded a 48% increase in postgraduate applications from India in the past three years, alongside a 67% rise in enrolments. This collaboration will enable even more talented students to benefit from a King’s Business School education and its strong links to London’s global hubs of finance, technology and policymaking.
This collaboration comes at a time when King’s Business School is deepening its engagement with India, having launched new alumni networks in Mumbai and New Delhi and meeting prospective students and partners across the country in September 2025.
Signing this agreement marks a significant step forward in our mission to provide our students with access to transformative global opportunities. By collaborating with King’s, we are opening doors to globally recognised postgraduate education, while removing traditional barriers such as application fees and long waiting times. This is about empowering Indian talent to succeed on the international stage.

The partnership builds on the success of ATLAS alumni like Bhavik Ahuja, who studied Business Management & Entrepreneurship at ATLAS before pursuing his MSc in Corporate Finance at King’s Business School. Today, he is the founder of TactIQ, a corporate training company.
ATLAS gave me the entrepreneurial foundation, while King’s gave me the global financial perspective,” said Bhavik. Together, they gave me the confidence to turn a childhood dream into reality.
