Required Materials
The Fall 2024 MBA application will open in mid-August. The completed online application must include copies of all academic transcripts and self- reported GMAT, GMAT Focus, GRE, or Executive Assessment scores (waiver available), with official score reports sent directly to the university. The application is not considered complete without official score reports. Applicants are required to submit a current, one-page professional resume, a personal statement and short video essay response, one letter of recommendation, and the $200 application fee. Applicants who are missing checklist items two weeks after the deadline will be moved to the next round.
Official transcripts must be submitted within 30 days of an admission offer.
International applicants must submit TOEFL or IELTS scores unless they have earned an undergraduate degree in a country where the official language is English or have lived and worked in an English-speaking country for the past two or more years. A Preliminary Financial Statement is required of applicants who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents.
How Does Vanderbilt Owen Conduct Interviews?
Candidates are encouraged to request an evaluative on-campus interview at any point during the application process. Candidates may request an interview during a weekday visit to campus or in conjunction with an open house weekend. Interviews are offered in cities where admissions officers are traveling by invitation only. Webcam interviews are offered by invitation only after an application has been submitted. When limited interview slots are available, priority is given to the most competitive applicants.
