• Have an undergraduate degree (Business Administration or other field) from a regionally accredited institution.
• Have 3 years professional experience and be fully employed when admitted to program unless otherwise granted approval.
• Submit GMAT (Graduate Management Admissions Test) scores. Executives with over 10 years experience may seek a waiver on this requirement.
