The Admission Committee of the full-time MBA Program is concerned with each applicant's interest, aptitude, and potential for achievement in graduate business studies. The program is structured to accommodate students with various undergraduate degrees. Program applications are reviewed on a "rolling" basis. Students may enter the program in the fall, spring or summer. All candidates must have completed a four year undergraduate degree or its equivalent from an accredited institution of higher learning to qualify for admission.

The Admissions Committee considers the above factors and attempts to achieve some reasonable geographic distribution among countries and continents when accepting full-time MBA students. Formal work experience is not required.

Application Procedures and Deadlines

Although there are no formal application deadlines, we recommend that all information be received in the full-time MBA Office by July 15th, November 15th, and April 15th for the fall, spring, and summer terms, respectively.

All applicants must submit the following items directly to the MBA Office:

• Application Fee $35.00. The fee is waived for candidates who apply online.

Waiver of the GMAT Requirement

Only applicants possessing a Ph.D. degree or equivalent may be waived from the GMAT requirement for admission.

Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)

The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is required of all applicants whose native language is not English. The test requirement may be waived in certain cases where English language proficiency can otherwise be demonstrated.

Transfer Credit

An applicant may request the transfer of graduate credit(s) earned at another institution. Each request will be evaluated on it own merits. Grades accepted for transfer must be "B" or better. A maximum of 9 credits on the graduate level (600-level) will be accepted for transfer purposes.

Selection Criteria

Because each applicant's background and profile is unique, the Admission Committee does not establish specific quantitative minimum requirements for admission; however, it does adhere to the accreditation standards established by the Association for the Advancement of Collegiate Schools of Business.

La Salle University does not discriminate against any applicant because of race, color religion, sex, age, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, veteran status, or marital status. Admission is based solely upon an applicant's qualifications.
