Business Administration — Admission Requirements

Please see the general statement of admission requirements for all graduate studies programs in the “Admissions” section of this publication, and the “Special Instructions for Applicants to Individual Programs” section at the back of this publication.

The Master of Business Administration (MBA) Admission Committee will recommend admission for applicants who show evidence of high promise of success in the MBA program of study. For a student profile, please visit

1. Undergraduate and any previous graduate performance
2. Professional work experience
3. GMAT scores
4. Statement of Intent
5. Recommendations

The MBA Admission Committee will consider all of the above in making an admissions decision. Admission to the program is very competitive, and students are judged in relation to other applicants that semester. Grade point averages and GMAT ranges are published each semester and distributed at MBA information sessions for the use of applicants in preparing for admission.
