Valparaiso University's Graduate School of Business operates on a rolling admission basis with 6 different start terms throughout the year.
Students are encouraged to apply at any point throughout the year. Students are admitted as their applications become complete on a first come, first served basis as long as there is space available.
When applying to a business school, you are required to take the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), a standardized test used by universities to evaluate an applicant's academic performance. For more information on the GMAT, please visit www.gmat.com.
