Admission to the MBA Program

Success in the MBA program offered by the Graduate School of Management depends on a number of factors ranging from motivation to practical knowledge to academic ability. The primary purpose of the admission process is to determine a prospective student's potential to successfully complete the requirements for the MBA degree. Because the school enrolls full-time, part-time and international students a variety of paths are available to individuals seeking admission.

Applicants may be admitted to pursue courses in one of three MBA admission categories:

  • Full Admission allows a student who is in good standing with the University to take any number of GSM courses in pursuit of a graduate degree. Once a student achieves Full Admission status he or she may take courses in any order as long as all course prerequisites are met.
  • Conditional Admission allows an applicant who does not meet the Full Admission requirements to begin classes in GSM under specific conditions. Once these conditions have been met the student will be granted Full Admission status.
  • Special Student (Transfer) Admission allows a student to take up to four courses to be transferred to a graduate program at another university.

    Applicants who are unable to provide all official documents prior to the admissions review process, but who have submitted adequate unofficial documents to determine eligibility, may be provisionally admitted into the categories of Full Admission, Conditional Admission, or Special Student (Transfer) Admission. Students admitted provisionally must provide complete and satisfactory documents before the end of their first trimester to continue in the program.

    To be considered for admission, all applicants for the MBA program must have a U.S. bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited college or university, or the foreign equivalent thereof. International applicants, including permanent residents living in the U.S., must also provide proof of proficiency in the English language (see details: ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR INTERNATIONAL APPLICANTS).

    No specific undergraduate major or concentration is required to pursue any GSM program. Applications for admission are considered by the Admissions Committee according to the stated criteria and without regard to age, sex, disability, race, color, religion, or national origin.
