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: Darden evaluates academics, professional experience, and personal qualities and characteristics when considering candidates. Interviews play a critical role. We seek individuals with strong interpersonal and communication skills, as these are essential for success in a case-method pedagogy and in positions of broad managerial responsibility. For more, see http://admissions.darden.virginia.edu.
Executive program: Darden seeks a diverse group of students representing a mix of industries, functions, and backgrounds with successful professional history. Factors such as a global perspective, the ability and interest to work with a diverse group of colleagues face-to-face and virtually, and the potential to be an outstanding leader in business are considered.
