How long are my test scores valid? #GMAT #GRE

If I took the GRE: Your scores are valid for five years after the testing year in which you tested (July 1 – June 30). Currently, scores earned from July 1, 2009, to the present are available.

If I took the GMAT: GMAC’s position is different.  GMAT scores are valid five years from the date of the test. For instance, if you sat for the GMAT exam on March 24, 2010, they would no longer be valid on March 24, 2015.

Top 5: Tips to Make the Most Out of an On-Campus Visit

So you're finally coming to campus. Whether it be for a large formal event, or for a smaller more one-on-one visit, here are some tips to make the most of your time on any campus:

1. Your Network Starts Now

Get to know as many people as possible. Faculty, staff, current students, alumni and other prospective students - this is a great opportunity to start building your Goizueta network.

2. Think Ahead

Write down your questions ahead of time and don't be afraid to ask them - this is your best opportunity to ask questions and get candid and immediate responses.

3. Take Advantage of Opportunity

You may only be on campus for an info session, but you might be missing other opportunities for tours or class visits. Make sure to fit in as much as possible to get the best gauge for the school.

4. Stay in Touch

You may meet various student ambassadors throughout your visit. They're here to be a resource for you and answer any questions you may have while you're on campus, but they're also more than happy to stay in touch and keep answering questions that you think of later down the road. 

5. Take it All in

Coming to campus is the most often cited reason for why MBAs choose their school. Make sure you take in all that Goizueta Business School has to offer while you're here!

We can't wait to see you - to register for upcoming events please visit our website.

Get Started Early on Applying to our Evening MBA

We know it's a lot of work to gather up your application materials, and even more so to study and take that pesky GMAT exam. However, there are several incentives to getting it out of the way early:

Waived Application Fee: If you apply to our Evening MBA during Rounds 1 and 2 - applications received between September 1, 2014 and February 20, 2015 - we'll waive your application fee. Simple as that! Just skip the application fee step and you've saved yourself a few dollars*

Sharpen and Improve your application - This could be good for several reasons. If you are wait listed, you have the opportunity and time to invest in improving your application. If you are admitted without scholarship, candidates also have time to submit updates to their file later in the application cycle to be re-reviewed for merit scholarships.

Applying in an earlier round allows more time after admission to prep for the start of classes, but there is no advantage or disadvantage between rounds in terms of admission. Choose the round in which you feel you can submit your strongest possible application and test score, but start early!

*The fee waiver will be posted automatically after the application is received. Reimbursement for fees already paid is not possible.

Apply in Evening MBA R1 or R2 to get your app fee waived

Did you know that from September 1, 2013 through February 21, 2014 application fees are waived for all Evening MBA applications?

If you're completing your Evening MBA application in Round 1 or Round 2, all you have to do is skip the application fee step! The fee waiver will be posted automatically after the application is received. Unfortunately please keep in mind that reimbursement for fees already paid is not possible.

So why apply early? Whilst it holds true that applicants in all rounds are considered for admission and merit scholarships, candidates admitted in the early rounds have the advantage of the following

Truly prepare for your MBA experience- That could mean more time to negotiate sponsorship and schedule with their manager, or even to plan vacation travel that would be more difficult during school.

Start building your network immediately - Several events are offered in the spring and summer to allow admitted students to meet their future classmates and professors.

Give yourself time to improve - This could be good for several reasons. If you are wait listed, you have the opportunity and time to invest in improving your application. If you are admitted without scholarship, candidates also have time to submit updates to their file later in the application cycle to be re-reviewed for merit scholarships.

We review hundreds of applications each year and enjoy getting to know the early applicants the best as we meet them on paper through the process and in person at a variety of events.
