Will a below average undergrad record affect my application to MBAP?

Your academic record is an integral part of the MBA Prep application, as it will be to your b-school applications. It is not the only thing we take into account, however. If you aren’t satisfied with your undergraduate academic performance, we suggest that you take business related classes (statistics, accounting, economics, etc) at a junior college to demonstrate that you are capable of succeeding in a top business program.

Will a low GMAT score affect my application?

Like all b-school applications, MBA Prep requires a GMAT score from applicants. Unlike b-school applications, you may submit a practice score for consideration at the time you apply. If you are accepted into the program, however, you must secure an Official score of 500 or higher by February 1st, 2009, in order to start.

These documents must be uploaded to your application in a PDF or MS Word format. Please name the documents in the following style: Last Name_First Name_Transcript.pdf, or Last Name_First Name_GMAT_MM DD YY.doc.

I clicked “Submit” and all that’s left is my recommendation. Am I done?

No. The request for recommendation will only be released once your application is submitted. Once you submit your application, your recommender will receive an email with a unique login. The recommender must follow the email instructions, log into the online recommendation system and fill out a form. This form is linked to your application. Once the form is completed by your recommender, your application is complete.

Your application is not considered complete until your recommender submits your letter. A sample recommendation form is available so you can let your recommender know what kind of information we are looking for once the request arrives. However, do not attempt to send this in as it will not be considered. SAMPLE

If you submit on November 15, your recommender has until November 22 to complete and submit the recommendation form.
