Required Materials
Applications must be completed through the online portal. Requests for exception must be submitted via email explaining the need to use a paper application. A completed application must include a one- or two-page resume, transcripts, GMAT or GRE scores, responses to essay questions, two letters of recommendation from direct supervisors or clients, and a $175 application fee.
Non-native English speakers who have not graduated from an institution in which English is the language of instruction are required to submit TOEFL or IELTS exam scores to demonstrate proficiency. Official scores must be sent directly from the testing agency and received by the deadline of that round. The application remains incomplete until the scores are received and unofficial test-taker copies are not accepted. 
U.S. Military service members and veterans will receive an automatic application fee waiver generated upon submission of the application. Forte MBA Launchers, current Peace Corps Volunteers, and Teach for America employees are exempt from the application fee and must request a fee waiver. Applicants should not pay the application fee if they meet waiver criteria as reimbursements are not issued.
Candidates in their senior year of undergraduate study may apply to Goizueta’s Early Admit MBA. Accepted candidates will receive deferred enrollment while gaining two to five years of experience in the workforce and access to Goizueta resources.
What is the Emory / Goizueta Interview Process?
Interviews are by invitation only after an initial review of the completed application. All application materials must be received by the deadline to be considered. Interviews can be on-campus or virtual and require business attire and an updated professional resume.

I'm Latino, I have MBB sponsorship although I'm not very interested in going back to MBB, is more like a back-up plan. I have very solid LoR.
Applying for GMAT waivers from selected schools. LoR's from current senior director and previous director who's now head of finance
Hi. I pivoted from litigation to credit research (worked with Evalueserve India, Crisil India) post my first mba. I did my mba from Symbiosis School of banking and finance in 2021. And altogteher i hold 6 years 4 months of work experience. I am targeting for 2027 fall. I hold an undergraduate degree in Law (BA.LLB (Hons)). I am looking for a change in roles/ geography.
Additional Notes:
1. MBB consultant w/3 years at the firm + one promotion
2. Took a secondment at a nonprofit focused in sustainability in countries below the equator (although have programs above too), including the one I am from (mentioned the link in essays)
3. Choosing to go to MBA for network opportunity to continue sustainability-focus, and inch closer to being ready to be in fields like impact investing (think MBB gives me general knowledge, but doesn't get me to where I want to go)
4. Will return to MBB because of sponsorship
5. Am worried about GRE; got a 158Q and 169V - so avg is around school avg, but the split is bad. Biggest worry here.
6. URM
