How to Apply

Along with an application fee of $150, you have to submit a scanned copy of your university transcripts for evaluative purposes.

The documents must include the university/college name, your name, degree conferred with date (if applicable), grade point average and all courses with grades received from all undergraduate and graduate institutions attended.

If you are admitted to the program you will be required to submit official transcripts at the time of your enrolment deposit.

Two letters of recommendation are to be submitted either online or in hard copy. The recommendations should be professional in nature. At least one of the recommenders should know you well in your current position such as a direct supervisor, project manager or client.

The admissions interview will give you an opportunity to explain more in depth your educational and career experiences to date, and to elaborate on your post-MBA career plans.

Your professional accomplishments, as well as your leadership and community achievements, will come up at the interview. Being similar to a professional job interview, you are expected to be in business attire and bring an updated copy of your résumé. Interviews last approximately 30 minutes.

You are required to take the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) or the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). Official score reports must be sent to Goizueta Business School directly from the testing service. Both GMAT and GRE scores are valid for five years from the examination date. If you have taken the tests multiple times, please submit all of your scores.

Four essays must be answered and submitted for your application to be considered complete. (Only two essays are required for re-applicants). The essays are a very important part of the application process, as they give the applicant an opportunity to show the Admissions Committee a bit more about personality traits beyond the application itself.

A one- or two-page résumé containing employment and educational background must be uploaded to your application. The employment section on the résumé should include locations, titles, and dates, starting with your most recent job. The education section should include dates of attendance and degrees received.

Goizueta Business School expects all students to possess strong communication skills in English. You are not required to submit an English Language Test Score if your undergraduate degree is from an institution in which English is the language of instruction and you work in a country where commerce is generally conducted in English (for example, India, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Singapore, Ghana, Nigeria and Uganda).
