Application Process

A completed application includes the following items:

  • Undergraduate degree and transcript from an accredited college or university that is equivalent to a four-year U.S. bachelor’s degree. (If you question whether your degree is equivalent, the MBA Admissions office can refer you to a transcript evaluation agency.)
  • GMAT scores sent directly from the testing service
  • Two letters of professional recommendation
  • Resume or curriculum vitae (please note that we require at least two years of full-time, post-graduate work experience)
  • Completed application with essays. To complete application online, click here.
  • Application fee

Candidates whose native language is not English and who have not earned a bachelor's or master's degree from a U.S., U.K., Canadian, or Australian/New Zealand institution also must submit the following:

  • TOEFL iBT test scores
  • Official English translations of all required academic documents

Application materials are reviewed thoroughly for evidence of writing and communication skills, initiative, maturity, and creativity. Extracurricular activities and professional and community involvement also are considered by the Admissions Committee.

Interview

  • Informational Meetings (15-20 minutes) can be scheduled on a space available basis. This is a good opportunity for candidates to learn: more about our programs; which program may be the right fit; and, how best to approach the application process. Please contact MBA Admissions to schedule a meeting.

  • Evaluative Interviews, as part of the official application process, are by invitation only and are scheduled by the Admissions office. Applicants please ensure you are fully prepared for your Evaluative Admissions Interview. The Admissions office receives a high volume of applications and it is important that you are prepared for the interview. Please do not contact our office to schedule your interview – we will contact you directly if an interview is necessary.

Re-application
Candidates who have applied to Babson in the past should contact the MBA Admissions Office for re-application instructions.

For additional information, please review our MBA Application Timetable.

International Fast Track Applicants
Babson College provides student immigration documents for students who are enrolled  in a “full-time”  program.  The Fast Track Program  is considered to be a “part-time” program.  International applicants who are currently in non-immigrant status (H-1B, B-1/B-2, L, TN, etc.)  or who are currently outside of the U.S. seeking entry to attend the Fast Track Program, are not eligible for F-1 student status.  International applicants may be able to attend the Fast Track program in another non-immigrant status depending on the status and the situation.
