You may be eligible for a GMAT/GRE waiver for our Full-Time MBA. We recognize the unprecedented times we are now facing and the testing challenges many have encountered due to COVID-19. Thus, for 2023, we have modified our language to allow applicants to request and be considered for a waiver IF meeting at least one of the following criteria:
Undergraduate degree from a U.S. institution with a cumulative grade point average of 3.2 or higher (or the equivalent if another grading scale is used) in a quantitative area including: business administration, economics, engineering, biological sciences, information and computer science, health sciences or physical sciences.
Â
Graduate (master’s or doctoral) degree or professional credential such as Certified Public Accountant or Certified Financial Analyst.
Â
Five or more years of professional work experience after completing undergraduate degree.
Â
Four or more years of military experience.
Request for a GMAT Waiver should be submitted in your MBA application and indicate one of the above reasons supporting your request.
PLEASE NOTE: Applicants who believe their GMAT score might add value to their overall application are encouraged to include their score with the application. Please note that not having a standardized test score will NOT affect your application adversely.
The University of California requires an undergraduate grade point average of 3.0 or higher for admission to graduate study.
