Anderson - UCLA

UCLA Anderson has three-rounds in which you may apply for admission. In order to apply for a given round, you must submit your application by 9:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time(PST) on the day of the deadline. All supporting materials that are not submitted online must arrive in our office by 5:00 p.m. PST of the deadline. Any applications that are incomplete on the deadline (i.e., missing information) will be moved to the following round.
Rounds 1 and 2 are comparable in terms of your chances of admission. Round 3 is slightly more competitive, although there will be sufficient room for strong candidates. Apply at the time that is best for you.

Columbia

  Application Deadline:
January 2012 entry October 5, 2011
August 2012 entry - early decision October 5, 2011
August 2012 entry - regular decision April 11, 2012
August 2012 entry - Merit Fellowship Consideration January 4, 2012

August Entry

About 70 percent of Columbia MBA students begin their studies in the fall term. After mandatory orientation in the second half of August, regular classes begin in September. Most August-entry students complete a summer internship between their second and third terms.

The August entry has two review periods — early decision and regular decision. Because the School uses a rolling admissions process, it is always to your advantage to apply well before the deadline.

Early Decision

* Available for August entry applicants only
* Application deadline in early October
* Early decision applications are reviewed, and decisions rendered, before regular decision applications
* Candidates have decided that Columbia is their first choice and must sign the following statement of commitment within their applications: I am committed to attending Columbia Business School and will withdraw all applications and decline all offers from other schools upon admission to Columbia Business School.
* Applicants must submit a nonrefundable $6,000 tuition deposit within two weeks of admission

Regular Decision

* Candidates may submit regular decision applications as soon as the application becomes available in the summer
* Regular decision applications are reviewed after early decision applications
* No statement of commitment required
* To be considered for merit-based fellowships, applications must be submitted by the specified merit-based fellowship deadline in early January
* Final application deadline in April

January Entry

Students who do not want or need an internship may consider beginning their MBA studies in January and completing their second semester of classes during the summer. A January start may be ideal for students who wish to remain in the same industry after graduation or pursue entrepreneurial interests. About 30 percent of students enter in January.

Please note that there is no early decision option for January entry and that, due the timing of the application cycle, January-entry applicants are not eligible for merit fellowship consideration. The Admissions Office begins reviewing applications for January entry once the application becomes available in May. The final application deadline is in early October.

Applicants admitted in the Early Action round must submit the non-refundable $3,000 tuition deposit along with official transcript(s) by December 20, 2011. In addition, any applications submitted to other schools must be withdrawn upon an offer of admission from The Duke MBA.

IE

Given the differing professional demands of each individual, IE Business School offers a rolling admissions process. As such, there are no submission deadlines for any particular intake. However, given the limited number of places in the program and the diverse student body, it is highly recommended you present your application approximately one year prior to program commencement, especially as seats fill far prior to the program start.

Kenan-Flagler - UNC

The Admissions Committee meets November through May and manages applications in cycles. Because of heavy demand and our small class size, early application is strongly recommended. Applicants should use the following guidelines in completing the application:

  Application must be received by 11:59 p.m. EST Decision Release Date (posted online by 5 p.m.) Deposit Deadline
Deadline 1 
early action   
October 21. 2011 December 12, 2011 January 9, 2012

Deadline 4 March 16, 2012 April 30, 2012 May 14, 2012

* Requests for admissions decisions before the decision release dates cannot be granted.

You are urged to apply early and to submit the personal information and resume portion of the application. UNC Kenan-Flagler's class size is small, and admission is very competitive.

The admissions office must also receive official GMAT® or GRE (if applicable) and TOEFL® scores by the application deadline in order to consider your application in that cycle.

Decisions are also posted online by 5 p.m. on the decision mailing dates.

Early Action

Our first cycle, October 21, 2011, is the Early Action deadline. Early Action is an option for applicants who know for certain that they will attend UNC Kenan-Flagler if admitted. Early Action provides applicants with the certainty of learning their decision by December 12, 2011. Admitted applicants in the Early Action cycle will be required to submit a $2,500 non-refundable enrollment deposit by January 6, 2012, in order to secure a space in the class. You should not apply for Early Action if you are not prepared to commit immediately to attending UNC.
