APPLICATION PROCESS
Applications for the Fall 2025 cohort opens on September 1st. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. All EMBA program applicants will receive an admission decision within two weeks of submitting their completed application.
Steps To Apply
Complete the online application and pay the $100 application fee.
Applications ask for basic biographical and educational data. They also contain short questions. These questions are your opportunity to highlight qualities that are relevant to success in a graduate business program but may not be reflected in test scores and past academic records. It is important to answer all questions thoroughly and thoughtfully, as the application is your means of informing us about yourself.
Once your application is received, it will be reviewed and you will be contacted if you are chosen for a personal interview. Please note that you do not have to fully complete the application in order to start the process. To be considered for a personal interview, simply fill out the biographical information, upload your resume, and click submit. You will be able to add transcripts and remaining required documents after clicking submit.
The EMBA admissions committee understands there are many ways an applicant can demonstrate their readiness for graduate study. Consequently, applications are reviewed through a holistic lens. A GMAT or a GRE score is not required, though if you feel the inclusion of a score would strengthen your application by demonstrating your preparation for graduate work, you are welcome to provide one. If you have questions, contact Taeisha Wynder.
The GMAT test code is QCK-ZW-44.
One official copy of the transcript of all college work is required from each institution previously attended. We will accept official transcripts electronically as long as they are sent by the institution directly to [email protected]. Please note that you can submit the EMBA application with unofficial copies that you upload. However, you will be required to submit official copies prior to a final admission decision being rendered.
If your institution doesn’t send transcripts electronically, each transcript must be mailed in an envelope from the institution closed with the institution’s official seal. Transcripts should be forwarded to:
