Candidates for the Professional MBA Program must provide two professional recommendations from current or past superiors. Recommendations from colleagues can not be substituted.

A degree in almost any discipline will be considered, provided all other admission requirements are met.

We will only consider a student from India with a three-year undergraduate degree if the degree is from an institution accredited by either AACSB, EQUIS or AMBA. There are no exceptions to the criteria. (Determine if your institution is accredited by  AACSB, EQUIS or AMBA.)

The degree can be either in the form of a four-year honors program or a three-year program plus one additional year of study in any discipline at the university-level.

On a case-by-case basis, we may consider those Domestic applicants who possess a three-year degree as long as they possess at least 10 years of progressive, professional experience.

To determine if a candidate meets the CGPA requirement, all four years of study and all courses are taken into account when calculating the cumulative grade point average.

A minimum of 5 years of relevant professional work experience, completion of the self-paced online MBA Math course with a minimum of 80% in each module and 80% overall, or a minimum GMAT score of 550 overall or equivalent GRE score.
