The admission file will be sent to the College of Business and Administration
(COBA) for an admission recommendation once all of the above have
been received by the SoGS (domestic applicants) or the UCIE (international
applicants). The COBA reco mmends regular admission only for those
applicants that show high promise for successful completion of the MBA
program. The admission recommendation is based on a variety of criteria.
The admission committee operationalizes the standard as follows:
"high promise" =
- high, balanced admission index
- consistently high undergraduate GPA or an upward trend in undergraduate
GPA
- high, balanced GMAT
- strong graduate GPA
- strong, balanced TOEFL
- strong analytical writing score on the GMAT
- experience of increasing responsibility, leadership, or variety
"for successful completion" =
- student will consistently, from the first quarter to the last, maintain
high (3.0 graduate GPA ) academic standards in all course work undertaken
- student will graduate with the MBA degree within the five year time
limit
"of the MBA program" =
- admission is specific to the MBA program. Admission or denial to
another program has no bearing on the MBA admission decision.
- taking and passing graduate business courses while in another program
or admission status is not, in and of itself, a demonstration of high
promise
