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: Academic records and test scores are evaluated to assess ability to succeed in the program. Full-time work experience is desired with rare exceptions made. All applicants are interviewed. All applicants’ essays, recommendations, and interviews must fit the Vanderbilt MBA culture – demonstrated leadership, service, teamwork, and ethical behavior.
Executive program: EMBA is suited to executives/managers with an average of 12 years experience in global, national or regional roles, with strong leadership, project, and budget experience. Level of influence is critical to enable immediate use of the EMBA’s practical content at work. Career success, transcripts, and GMAT scores prove a candidate’s ability to contribute in a classroom of executive peers.
