Admission Information for an MBA Degree
The factors for admission are used to develop an overall assessment of the applicant and his or her potential contribution to the program. All applicants are evaluated on the basis of achieving AACSB recommended standards for admission primarily based on GPA and GMAT/GRE achievement.
Domestic MBA RequirementsMBA Application
Requirements
MBA prospective students must submit all materials no later
than August 1st. However, you are strongly encouraged
to submit your application materials well before that deadline!
Once we receive your completed application and materials you can
expect a prompt admission decision. Students begin their program
either during the initial Short Intensive Summer Session, or during
the regular academic fall quarter. For this reason,
admission/acceptance to the MBA program is restricted to Fall
quarter. (Summer Session course participants apply for Fall quarter
admission)
International MBA Requirements MBA Application
Requirements
International students, applying to the MBA program, must submit
all materials so they are received no later than March1st in order
to be considered for the Fall quarter enrollment of the same year.
This deadline is not an application deadline, it is a portfolio
completion deadline; meaning that all required supporting documents
must be received by that date. Applications should be submitted as
soon as possible to start the application process. Be advised, in
the event there is a conflict between an international completion
deadline and a program deadline, the earlier date will
apply.
International students who have already been admitted to a
graduate program at Cal Poly, and who wish to add the Cal Poly MBA
program to their academic goals, should contact the Orfalea College
of Business Graduate Programs Office to determine applicable
deadlines for adding the MBA program.
