Student Profile

Students entering the Full-Time MBA Program are looking to build a career based on the use of information technology to manage people, products, and projects. Some are recent graduates from a wide variety of undergraduate majors (a business background is not required). Some are international students, looking to gain educational and managerial experience in the United States via our field project program. Some students have considerable work experience, but are looking to begin a new career.

All students have done well academically in their undergraduate years (our average undergraduate G.P.A. is a 3.4 on a 4.0 scale) and all are highly motivated to succeed. This MBA Program included group work so all students will be able to thrive in a team-based environment. All forms of business communication are stressed: students should be articulate, possess a high degree of English fluency and have excellent writing skills. The GMAT and TOEFL (for international students) are required; our students traditionally score above the 50th percentile on the verbal and quantitative GMAT tests. Our Full Time MBA class is small and highly interactive (we only admit a class of approximately 35-40 students each year) resulting in a very competitive admissions process.

If this describes you, we invite you to apply.
