With the following exceptions, all applicants must submit a valid score from the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), Executive Assessment (EA) or the Graduate Records Examination General Exam (GRE). The admissions committee may consider waiving the GMAT/GRE/EA requirement for MBA programs when one of the following conditions is met: a general merit-based test waiver is approved prior to application submission.
