Who We Look For
We select applicants whose demonstrated leadership, intellectual capacity, global perspective, academic background and professional experience have prepared them to meet the rigors of our MBA program and an impactful career.
- To be considered for admission, you must hold a bachelor’s degree from a U.S. regionally accredited institution or the international equivalent. To determine if your degree program meets our requirements, review the expected level of study for international students.
- The Admissions Committee evaluates your academic potential, professional promise and personal qualities. These factors are not listed in order of importance, and we look at each candidate individually.
We aim to assemble a class of students who will bring diverse perspectives to the learning environment.
