Résumé - Please include a current résumé with your application
Application Fee -Please include the $50 application fee ($100 for international applicants) in the form of a check or money order made payable to Mercer University. Do not send cash. The application fee is nonrefundable and cannot apply toward tuition. Former or current students of Mercer University need not submit another application fee. Mailing address is provided above.
GMAT/GRE - All applicants must take the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). The GMAT and GRE are administered by the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey. Testing information can be obtained by contacting the Stetson School of Business and Economics, or visiting the Official GMAT or GRE Website. The admission decision is based upon assessment of the applicant's ability for successful graduate study. This assessment will be based upon aptitude, measured by the GMAT or GRE, and previous academic record. Applicants holding a graduate degree from a regionally-accredited college or university, or equivalent international graduate degree will not be required to submit a GMAT (or GRE) score.
Unofficial GMAT/GRE - If you have already taken the GMAT or GRE and have the score results, we request that you include this information with the application. For example, you may submit a copy of the unofficial score report given at the time the test was taken (sometimes referred to as the "walk-out score report") or a copy of your examinees score report received through the mail. This will allow the School of Business to reach a conditional admissions decision. This does not replace the requirement of an official score report for those applicants who are offered admission.
Transcripts –Applicants must submit one official transcript from each college and university attended. Transcripts are required for both undergraduate (including summer school and studies abroad) and graduate course work, regardless of length of stay or if the grades are listed on another school's transcript. A transcript request form is provided to assist you in this process. Complete the transcript request form and submit it to each school's registrar. The registrar will return the transcripts to you in a sealed institution envelope. Do not open the envelope.Former and current Mercer University students need not request a Mercer University transcript. Request the Transcript Request Form atGraduateSSBE@mercer.edu.
