Your prior work experience helps us understand how you have developed leadership and teamwork skills, as well as maturity, on both professional and personal levels.

• We strongly prefer some experience as a business professional and recommend that all applicants have at least 2 years of work experience following the completion of their MMS, MiM, or MQM degree. However, we will also consider applicants that can demonstrate exceptional leadership and professional development.
• All post-undergraduate work experience will be considered.
• In your application, show us how your previous experiences will contribute to the Fuqua learning environment.

Fuqua values differences and unique points of view, so we admit applicants with:

• Various undergraduate degrees and professional backgrounds
• A wide range of GPAs and GMAT/GRE/EA scores

Because the Accelerated Daytime MBA academic environment is demanding and fast-paced and requires strong quantitative and analytical skills, the admissions committee pays particular attention to the quantitative segment of your test score to ensure that you will be able to handle the rigor of the program.

Your application essays, recommendation, and interview are what weave fit, passion, and impact together into your "story." No one part is more important than the other, so give each one your best. And most importantly, just be you.

Essays:

Your essays allow us to get to know you as a person—what drives you and inspires you. You have the chance here to fill in any gaps, or provide extra details on key areas of your application.

Recommendations:

The most valuable recommendations come from people who know your professional skills and abilities. Prepare your recommender so that he/she represents you well and showcases aspects of you that are not reflected in other areas of the application.

Interview:

During your interview, you’ll have the opportunity to:

• Show us your interpersonal skills
• Give us additional insight into who you are
• Demonstrate how you are a good fit
