Update on MBA admission

The Graduate School of Business is in the final stages of the admission process for our part-time MBA (Managerial MBA - MMBA) program. To date, 47 students have been admitted. We anticipate admitting 10-20 more between now and the end of July. Thus far, average GMAT for this class equals 587, average GPA equals about 3.2, and average work experience is about 6. These numbers will change when the final applicants have been admitted.

The deadline for the full-time MBA program is not until September 15. To date 13 students have been admitted and we anticipate admitting between 35 and 40. Currently the average GMAT for this class (that begins in January) is 633, average GPA is about 3.4, and the average number of years of work experience is about 5. Again, since the final application deadline is not until September 15, these numbers will change once final decisions have been made.

We are very pleased with the status of the Walton College MBA programs. The quality of our applicants continues to improve each year making admissions decisions more and more difficult. This benefits our students and it also benefits the MBA programs.

Hi! The new full-time program looks pretty interesting and I'd like to learn more. I've already completed 2/3 of an MBA program at another school, but am disillusioned with their administration.

I've already used "Hog Chat" for information, but I think i need to speak with an admissions adviser. What is the best way to do so?

Thanks so much!
