Test Scores

Standardized tests are only one way of evaluating a student’s academic potential, but they do add another piece to the puzzle. Each applicant to the Fisher MBA for Working Professionals program must arrange to take the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT).

Please instruct the testing service to send your test results directly to The Ohio State University.

Our GMAT program code is ZLJ-9D-98.

GMAT

Typically, 80 percent of the students we admit score in the 530-700 range. However, there is no minimum GMAT score required to enter our program.

We recommend that you plan in advance to take the GMAT, which will allow you to study and take practice tests prior to taking the official test. A number of our students have found it helpful to follow GMAT preparation courses, either online or in a center close to where they work or live.

Next Generation GMAT

The "integrated reasoning" section is a new section of the GMAT. Learn more by watching the following video.

GMAT waiver

You may qualify for a GMAT waiver if you have:

  1. a minimum cumulative 3.4 undergraduate GPA (or equivalent); and
  2. 4+ years of professional work experience beyond university graduation or a previous graduate degree.

The decision to grant the GMAT waiver is made at the discretion of the Admissions Committee. Should the committee decide that a GMAT score is needed to fully evaluate your candidacy for the MBA program, you will be informed once your application has been initially reviewed.
