Criteria, Processes, Factors, and Procedures Used in Admissions
(Data appear as originally submitted by this school)
Full-time traditional two-year and full-time accelerated programs: Applicants must submit an application, application fee, official transcripts, 3 letters of recommendation, resume, essay of goals and objectives, and GMAT results. Once complete, the file is sent to the admissions committee. Academic indicators are important, but so are the other factors to gauge intrinsic traits such as motivation, maturity, focus and drive.
Executive program: EMBA program applicants are required to have an interview and minimum of five years of professional work experience in addition to the same application materials for the MBA program.
Part-time program: Part-time candidates must submit an application, fee, transcripts, 2 letters of recommendation, essay, resume and GMAT results. The program admits each semester, and students proceed at their own pace. Courses meet one night per week per course for 2.5 hours. Most candidates take 2.5 to 3.5 years to complete the program.
Part-time distance learning program: N/A
