Application and fee Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or Graduate Record Examination (GRE) The School of Management is using a test-optional admissions process for our MBA for the 2024 admissions cycle. You have the option to submit GMAT or GRE scores in support of your application, but are not required to do so. If you choose to submit a score, it may improve your chance of being admitted, as well as increase your opportunity for a merit-based scholarship. For more information regarding the GMAT test, dates and places of administration, see the GMAT website. The GMAT institutional reporting code for the full-time MBA program is K6RQX67. The GRE is also accepted for the full-time MBA program. To meet the needs of students who are unable to take the GRE® General Test at a test center due to public health concerns, ETS is temporarily offering a GRE General Test at home option in selected areas. The reporting codes for GRE are 4201 (department code) and 2925 (institutional code). Personal statements Two personal statements are required for admissions consideration: 1.
