Admissions Requirements

Students must apply separately to, and be accepted by, both the School of Law and the School of Management. Students usually apply to the School of Management before or during their first year at the School of Law, and begin the M.B.A. part time during their second year of law school.

For M.B.A. admissions:
GSM (Graduate School of Management) application
An official score on the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) from the past 5 years (the LSAT will NOT be accepted in lieu of the GMAT)
Two letters of recommendation
Four required essays
Official copies of all university-level transcripts (both undergraduate and graduate)
Current resume

Although work experience is not a requirement of admissions,many candidates do have some post-graduate experience. As such, candidates with little or no work experience should be stronger in other admissions criteria such as GPA and GMAT.

Application deadlines for GSM:
November 1st, January 4th, March 12th
