Full-Time MBA
Standardized Test Waiver (GMAT/GRE)
As part of our continuing efforts to identify and meet the needs of all future leaders interested in improving their lives through graduate education, the Full-Time MBA program is now offering GMAT/GRE test waivers for autumn 2023 applicants. MBA applicants seeking a test waiver will have additional weight placed on the remaining application components and will be asked to submit a supplemental essay.
Our waiver review process is a holistic one, designed to identify and attract students whose talent, dedication and diverse perspectives will further enhance the Fisher community. Other qualities that may distinguish you as a candidate for a test waiver include work experience, professional certifications, undergraduate GPA, awards, military experience, LSAT/MCAT scores, analytical expertise or quantitative ability.
While a test waiver may benefit some MBA candidates, individuals should consider personal circumstances when applying. The GMAT and GRE exams are standard benchmarks for applicants wishing to signal their suitability for a rigorous MBA program.

The waiver request is part of our online application. Simply answer "YES" to the question "Do you wish to request a GMAT/GRE waiver?" |
|
The supplemental essay (500-word max.) can be used to indicate the criteria on which you are basing your GMAT/GRE waiver request and/or to address any circumstances about which you'd like the Admissions Committee to be aware. Some examples would be gaps in work history, academic performance, recommenders, etc. |

Complete the remainder of your application and submit it for consideration. |
