WEB MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

REGULAR ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Admission to the Web Master of Business Administration (Georgia WebMBA®) program is limited to holders of a baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited institution. It is expected that admission will be granted only to students showing high promise of success in graduate study. The candidate’s performance on the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) and the candidate’s undergraduate work will be used to determine admission status.

The median GMAT score for currently admitted students is 510. If a potential student has taken the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) within the past three years, please contact the Director of Graduate Programs in Business to determine if the GRE can be substituted for the GMAT.

GMAT waivers will be allowed for admission into the Georgia WebMBA® for students with significant middle-upper level management experience or a master's degree. Applicants must file a petition to be considered for a GMAT waiver. Please contact the Director of Graduate Programs in Business for a copy of the GMAT waiver petition guidelines.

Applicants may enter Fall or Spring Semester only. Admission is granted after meeting the admission standards.

Students admitted into the WebMBA program will be required to have at least two years of documented related business experience.
