Application Review Process GMBA

We will begin reviewing your application after we receive your complete application.

Once you have submitted the application online, you will receive an email message confirming receipt of your application.

Your application will generally be processed on the next business day after it has been submitted. If there is something missing in your application, you will receive an email asking you to log back in to your application to view the documents that are missing. 

When your file is complete, you will receive another email notifying you that your application is complete and has been moved forward for review.

Interviews

The personal interview is an important, though not required, part of the admissions process.  If you are selected for a personal interview, you will receive the invitation and scheduling information via email.  Interviews are available by invitation only.

In general, interviews are conducted either in person, by video or by telephone. The interview enables the Admissions Committee to learn more about you as an individual and become more familiar with your qualities, achievements, goals and fit with the program. 

Decision Notification

You will be notified of the final decision through a mailed letter.  There are three possible post-interview decisions:

  • Offer of admission
  • Waitlist offer
  • Denial of admission

All decisions of the Admissions Committee are final.

Waitlist
In our admissions process, you may be placed on the waitlist without being interviewed or after being interviewed. If you are placed on the waitlist, you will receive additional  information about the process.

Admission
If admitted, you will receive notification via email and an Admit Packet, which will include the official letter of admission. The letter will have the date for which you have to commit by. 

If you have been awarded any scholarships, that information will be include letter of admission. In addition, you will be given access to our Admitted Students’ Forum. 

Denial of Admission

If you are denied admission for the year which you applied, you are eligible to apply again in a subsequent year. In your re-application, you must start a new online application. You are free to submit updated versions of any documents from your previous application, e.g., essay content, updated GMAT score, resume etc. You will go through the same selection process as any other first-time applicant.
