What are the Prerequisites for Admission?
To be considered for admission to the Full-Time MBA Program, applicants must have an undergraduate degree from an accredited US college or university or its equivalent in another country. Non-native English speakers must submit proof of English proficiency by taking the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or the academic version of the International English Language Testing System (IELTS). This requirement can be waived if the applicant has earned an undergraduate or post-graduate degree from an institution in which English is the language of instruction.
What Materials are Required?
The online application must be submitted with a professional resume, scans of official transcripts (hard copies of official transcripts are required after an offer of admission), GMAT or GRE scores (test waiver optional), essay question responses, a letter of recommendation, and the $75 application fee. Interviews are offered by invitation only and are conducted by Skype or phone.

Any advice on a range for a target GRE score and based on my profile do you think the 3.3 will hold me back from those top M7/T15 schools that I plan to apply to?
(I assume to help offset the 3.3, my GRE score will need to be pretty high)
