GMAT INFORMATION

As indicated on the GSIB site, the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) is required for all graduate school applicants. We have identified a few exceptions [PDF] to the GMAT policy for this program. If you believe your background may qualify you for the GMAT waiver, you should submit your GMAT Waiver request with your application. Your request should be one or two paragraphs stating why / on what grounds you are requesting the waiver.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The GMAT waiver is not guaranteed for any applicant. Your request will be reviewed along with other application materials, and decisions are made on a case-by-case basis. If you plan to request the GMAT waiver you should submit your completed application package in time to take the GMAT if required. For information on the GMAT, go to www.mba.com. There you will find schedules, test locations, fees, and preparation tools.
