• INTERNATIONAL APPLICANTS

  In addition to the online MBA application, international applicants will need to complete additional materials in order to comply with university and United States INS regulations. For a checklist of additional items required, please contact the International Student and Scholar Center at 801-626-6853, or go to https://weber.edu/SIS/Internationaladmissions.html.

  International applicants are required to furnish proof that they have earned the equivalent to a US bachelor's degree for college/university course work completed outside of the United States.  To do this you will need to send an original copy of your undergraduate transcript to a Foreign Credentials Evaluation company and request both a degree and course-by-course transcript evaluation. An official copy of the evaluation report must be sent to the MBA Program office, so that this information can be added to your MBA application. Please go to http://weber.edu/SIS/Foreign_Credentials.html for a list of credential evaluation companies accepted by WSU.

  International applicants seeking resident tuition rates must have GPAs and GRE/GMAT test scores exceeding the average for resident applicants. Consult with the MBA admissions director for additional details. 

  International applicants must be able to comprehend and speak English fluently, as well as read and write English competently. Candidates from non-English-speaking countries are required to establish proof of English language competency unless they received their bachelor's degree from a university in which the language of instruction was English.  This may consist of one of the following:

  • Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) - applicants may have an official score report sent to the MBA Office which is not more than two years old and on which a minimum score of 550 (paper-based); 213 (computer-based), or 79-80 (internet-based) has been earned.
  • International English Language Testing System (IELTS) - applicants may have an official score report sent to the MBA Office which is not more than two years old and on which a minimum score of 6.5 has been earned.
