MBA+ Dual Degree Admissions

Application Form

Aside from the MBA+ MS in Digital Technology, which is housed solely within Questrom, admission to all other MBA+ Dual Degrees requires separate applications to both Questrom and the appropriate BU school or college associated with the dual degree. Candidates should refer to the application deadlines and admission decision dates for both schools to determine the best time to submit their application to each program.

For the MBA+ JD (non-accelerated), students who are already enrolled in the School of Law may apply to Questrom’s MBA program as a dual degree student. Students often apply before or during their first year of law school to begin the MBA program in their second year. In addition, students who are already enrolled in the School of Medicine can apply for the MBA+ MD at various points during their time as a medical student. Please contact the Graduate Admissions and Financial Aid Office with any questions.

Review our admissions checklist to stay on top of materials required for the MBA portion of the dual degree, and be sure to keep an eye on deadlines, too.  For more information on admissions requirements for the other BU school of college associated with the dual degree, please reach out to that School’s admissions office directly

Feel free to contact us with any questions along the way. We want the admissions process to be as simple and transparent as possible. Reach out to the Graduate Admissions and Financial Aid Office at 617-353-2670 or mba@bu.edu.

The Graduate Admissions and Financial Aid Office at Questrom keeps all MBA records on file for one year. We welcome your re-application to Questrom.

Each re-applicant is required to submit a new application form and fee ($125); an essay discussing updates or changes since the time of the previous application, as well as reasons for re-applying; an updated resume; a new letter of recommendation; official university-level transcripts (if the re-applicant has taken new coursework since the time of their first application); and updated GMAT or GRE results (if applicable).

For more information on the re-application process for the BU school or college associated with the dual degree, please reach out to that School’s admissions office directly.

The Questrom admissions committee interviews a significant number of applicants for our portfolio of graduate business programs. The interview is an evaluative component of the application process and is conducted by a member of the admissions committee. We offer pre-application interviews before our first deadline in October, as well as on an invitation-only basis once the application has been submitted to the Graduate Admissions and Financial Aid Office. Throughout the year, all interviews will be offered on campus, via Zoom, and in select off-campus locations.

The Graduate Admissions and Financial Aid Office will waive the application fee for current BU employees, as well as for those who attended select admissions events and off-site fairs. In addition, we will waive the application fee for those who are members or alumni of the following programs:

Please note: To receive this application fee waiver, you must fill out the application fee waiver request form below. Application fee waiver requests must be approved prior to submitting your application. If you submit an application and pay the application fee, we will not be able to process a refund.

Instructions: To take advantage of this waiver, please fill out the Fee Request Waiver form once your application has been started. Your CAS ID can be found at the top right of the online application. Once we process your fee waiver request, you’ll receive a follow-up email with additional instructions on how to submit your application. DO NOT click “submit and pay for programs” prior to receiving these instructions. We are unable to offer application fee refunds.

Due to the high volume of applications we receive, your application fee waiver may take a few business days to process. If you submit this request before or on one of our application deadlines but do not receive a confirmation from us that same day, your application will still be considered “on time” for the deadline to which you applied. You must submit your waiver request before you submit your application in order for the fee waiver to be applied.

Please note: If you have been approved for an application fee waiver and are applying to one of our dual degree programs, the application fee waiver will be applied to your Questrom application only. You will still need to pay the required application fee for the other school at BU to which you are applying.
