Admission to the Program
Students will submit evidence of a Bachelor’s degree from an accredited
institution, and a cumulative grade point average of 2.5 or better. The
Graduate Management Aptitude Test (GMAT) is also required for admission. A
waiver of the GMAT requirement may be considered on a case by case basis
based on three to five years managerial experience which included budget,
resource, personnel and planning responsibility for a cost or profit center
within a business or successful operation of an independent business. Students
entering the program must have a business undergraduate degree or: 1) at
least one quantitative course in mathematics (beyond basic algebra), statistics,
quantitative methods, finance, accounting or economics; and 2) at least one
additional course in finance, accounting and micro/macroeconomics (The
University offers a combined micro/macro course that students can take to
satisfy this prerequisite).
