Summary
Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or Graduate Record Examination (GRE)
Main Content

Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is required. However, applicants with more than five years of relevant, professional, full-time work experience and/or U.S. board-certified physicians (proof of current certification required) will be considered for a waiver. Evaluation of relevant experience is at the discretion of the admissions committee.

Applicants with between three and five years of professional full-time work experience may apply for a waiver. Several factors are considered in the review of a waiver request, including the rigor of prior undergraduate and graduate coursework, academic performance, evidence of quantitative and analytical skills, prior work experience, current job responsibilities, and professional certifications.

To request a waiver, you must provide a brief summary that outlines why you believe you are qualified for the test score waiver along with your resume and unofficial academic transcripts. Please note that a GMAT/GRE waiver is not automatic, and an approved waiver request does not guarantee admission to the program.
