Unofficial transcripts may be used for admissions review. However, official degree bearing transcripts will be required before the start of classes.

Recommendations can be professional references from individuals who know you in an employment setting (internships work as well) and are written by a current/previous supervisor. For those students who do not have work experience, academic recommendations are welcomed. Please refrain from using personal recommendations (family, friends, etc.). 

The essay questions can be found on the online application.

All applicants must pay a non-refundable application fee of $65. The fee is to be paid by credit card on the online application site when you submit.

Admissions interviews will be scheduled after all other materials are received. 

MBT Applicants are not required to take the GMAT. Please arrange for official reports to be sent directly to 51±¬ÁÏÍø (Program Code: 8PP-NJ-48). We do not accept the GRE score in place of the GMAT. The Admissions Committee will consider your highest score if you have taken the test more than once. For more information about the GMAT test and how to register, please visit www.mba.com.
