  • Applicants are not typically required to take the GMAT, GRE or EA exam. In some cases, the admissions committee will ask that a candidate take one of these tests to provide additional evidence of academic readiness. Candidates who are asked to take a test are encouraged to take the Executive Assessment which is specifically designed to evaluate the business college readiness of seasoned professionals.  The assessment focuses on skills that are critical both at work and in an EMBA program: higher order reasoning, critical thinking, analysis, and problem-solving.  Because it was designed specifically for experienced professionals, it requires modest preparation, takes only 90 minutes to complete, and includes flexible rescheduling options. The test is administered by the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC), creators of the GMAT® exam. Learn more about the Executive Assessment by visiting gmac.com/ea.
