Admissions

Requirements

Custom corporate MBA programs require a minimum of 30 and maximum of 50 participants from a single organization. Minimum requirements for admission are:

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent from an accredited university
• 3.0 grade point average or equivalent
• For non-native English speakers, evidence of English proficiency (TOEFL or IELTS)

GMAT scores, though normally required for MBA admissions, are waived for applicants to custom corporate MBA programs.

Process

From the outset we work with companies to streamline a process for their internal selection of, and communication with, potential candidates. Companies generally submit a list of their recommended candidates six to nine months before the targeted start date of the program.

The W. P. Carey School of Business then directly assists candidates in the application and admissions process. Final admissions decisions are made by ASU's Division of Graduate Studies, so recommended candidates cannot be guaranteed admission. We usually work with client companies to develop a waiting list so we can admit the targeted number of employees.
