Applicants are considered on an individual basis. Transcripts for all undergraduate and any graduate work must be submitted to the UIC Liautaud Graduate School of Business Program Office. In addition to the Graduate College minimum requirements, applicants must meet the following program requirements:

• Baccalaureate Field No restrictions.

• Grade Point Average At least 3.00/4.00 for the final 60 semester (90 quarter) hours of undergraduate study.

• Tests Required GMAT or GRE. The score must be from a test administered within five years of the requested date of entry. The writing assessment is required. The Graduate College per se does not require a standardized test, but most graduate programs at UIC, including this one, require the results of either the GMAT or the GRE and look at these scores as part of the overall credentials of the applicant. The expectation for a GMAT score is 600.

• Minimum English Competency Test Score

  • TOEFL iBT 80, with subscores of Reading 20, Listening 20, Speaking 20, and Writing 21, OR,

  • IELTS Academic 6.5, with 6.0 in each of the four subscores, OR,

  • PTE-Academic 54, with subscores of Reading 51, Listening 47, Speaking 53, and Writing 56.

• Letters of Recommendation Two required.

• Personal Statement Required.

• Resume or CV Required.

• Other Requirements FIN 500, ACTG 500, IDS 570, and ECON 520, or the equivalent coursework. Deficiencies can be addressed by taking these courses at UIC, thus increasing the time to complete the degree.
