Required Materials
Applicants must submit the online application form, GMAT or GRE (waiver available), copies of academic transcripts from all institutions where they have attempted more than 15 credits, essay question responses, a one-page resume and contact information for a recommender. One recommendation is required, but the adcom will accept up to two. Applicants whose first/primary language is not English must demonstrate proficiency in both written and spoken English with a TOEFL iBT, IELTS, PTE or Duolingo English Test score. The adcom strongly encourages applicants to have two years of full-time work experience. The non-refundable application fee is $100.
When Does JHU Carey Issue Invitations to Interview?
Interviews are offered by invitation within two weeks of a given round’s deadline. The timing of an interview invitation has no bearing on admission. Interviews are offered in-person on our campus, via Zoom, and when possible, in other cities around the world.

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)
