All applications will be reviewed by two branches of the University: the Smeal MBA Program Admissions Office (MBA requirements and admissions criteria) and the Penn State University Graduate School (verification of educational documentation and credentials, and international visa requirements). You may be contacted by parties from either area.
Admissions application reviews and decisions are made on a rolling basis following application deadlines. All candidates are encouraged to apply by the February 1 deadline for financial aid consideration.
