Core courses are designed to provide students with key concepts and strategies that pervade the functional areas of business management today. They constitute the major common body of knowledge with which students develop critical thinking and analytical abilities in the business world. The courses in the core reflect our commitment to a well-rounded business background. Building upon this foundational core, students may elect to individualize their program with 12-credits of electives, or select one of our concentration areas in Business Analytics or Healthcare Management. Admission Requirements Applicants to the MBA program must submit: One official copy of all undergraduate (four-year degree) and graduate coursework, including a baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution. An undergraduate cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher (4.0 basis). If an applicant has a GPA below 3.0, inclusion of GMAT or GRE in their application package may be requested. A satisfactory test score of 450 or better on the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) or 300 or better on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). Three current letters of recommendation Statement of objectives For international students, a Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) score of 80 on the internet-based exam or higher is required prior to admission. Candidates with less than an 80 TOEFL score will be admitted to the English as a Second Language (ESL) program. Entering MBA students are expected to have competency in basic computer, quantitative, and oral and written communication skills. Students that need to acquire these skills will be advised to take additional credit or non-credit courses to obtain these skills. Any credits taken to obtain basic skills may not, however, be applied toward the MBA degree.
