Maastricht University: OMPT requirements by programme
Maastricht's business school runs on OMPT-A (75% benchmark) and OMPT-B for the quantitative tracks, while its computing department asks for OMPT-D at 60%. The 75% on International Business is the highest widely-cited OMPT bar in the Netherlands.
Maastricht University's School of Business and Economics sets the number everyone quotes: 75% on OMPT-A for International Business, Economics and Business Economics, and Fiscal Economics — the highest widely-cited OMPT bar in the Netherlands. International Business softens it slightly: scores between 70 and 74% get an individual review rather than an automatic refusal. Three attempts are allowed on the SBE programmes, which is more room than Tilburg or Groningen's science faculty give you.
The quantitative SBE tracks — Econometrics and Operations Research, Business Analytics, Business Engineering — are confirmed on OMPT-B, but no official page publishes their exact minimum. Ask admissions directly rather than trusting a forum number.
Across town, the Faculty of Science and Engineering asks for OMPT-D at 60% for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence and for Computer Science, capped at two attempts, with an on-site entrance exam, an external VWO Maths B course, or the Colloquium Doctum as alternatives. For the 75% business route my practice benchmark is 85% on a timed mock before booking; the gap between a practice 78 and a real-day 73 is exactly the kind that individual review was invented for, and you do not want to depend on it.

Maastricht University OMPT questions, answered
What OMPT score does Maastricht University require?
75% on OMPT-A for the School of Business and Economics bachelors (International Business reviews 70-74% individually), and 60% on OMPT-D for Data Science and AI and Computer Science. The quantitative business tracks use OMPT-B with no published minimum.
How many OMPT attempts does Maastricht allow?
Three on the business school programmes, two on the science faculty's OMPT-D programmes.
What happens if I score 72% for Maastricht International Business?
Scores from 70 to 74% get an individual review rather than automatic rejection — but that is a fallback, not a plan. Aim for 85% on a timed practice mock before you book.
