The minimum score required varies from program to program.

The TOEFL test is the most widely respected English-language test in the world, recognized by more than 7,500 colleges, universities and agencies in more than 130 countries.

TranscriptA transcript is an official report supplied by a school on the record of an individual student, listing subjects studied, grades received, etc. Most EMBA programs require a transcript from the institution where the participant completed their bachelorˇ¦s degree or equivalent to ensure the suitability for the EMBA program. If you are an autodidact or a non-conventional candidate, discuss the options available to you with the EMBA programˇ¦s admissions team. Depending on your background and professional experience, you may be able to find a solution.
Rolling admissions processMany Executive MBA programs use what they call a rolling admission process. This means they are constantly receiving and reviewing dossiers throughout the academic year. They accept or reject candidates as they are reviewed (including a waiting list option for borderline applications), and provide a response within four to six weeks of receipt.
