Graduate Admissions
General Information
The MSEM program operates on a rolling admissions basis, which means that you can apply at any time and begin your studies in the next upcoming term (Fall or Spring). If you are ready to begin the program but don’t have time to complete the application process, you may register as a non-degree student; for more information about this option, click here.

- If your undergraduate grade point average (GPA) was below 2.75, an official score from either the GRE or GMAT test that was taken within five years of the date of application. If your undergraduate GPA was 2.75 or higher, the test is not required.
