Simon Business School encourages submission of a GMAT, GRE, or Executive Assessment to support your application for MBA study and to provide an assessment of verbal, quantitative, and analytical skills. If you are unable or prefer not to submit a standardized test score, please note that you may waive this requirement if you meet one of the following criteria:
- GPA of 3.2 or higher on a scale of 4.0 or 4.3
- GPA of 3.5 or higher on a scale of 4.5
- GPA of 7.5 or higher on a scale of 10
- GPA of 82% or higher (out of 100%)
- “First Class with Distinction” division
- “First Class” division
We encourage candidates who attended institutions that are outside the US and are not on a 4.0 grading scale to submit a WES or Josef Silny educational credential evaluation to support eligibility for a test score waiver, as this will expedite our assessment of your application materials.
Regardless of your cumulative GPA and eligibility for a test score waiver, if you have limited or weak performance in math or business courses, we recommend either taking non-matriculated courses or submitting a standardized test score to demonstrate your capabilities.
