GMAT/GRE waivers may be granted to LMU MBA applicants who demonstrate quantitative competency and readiness for our rigorous curriculum. A GMAT/GRE waiver does not guarantee admission into the MBA Program.

To be eligible for a GMAT/GRE waiver, applicants to the LMU MBA program must meet one of the following criteria:

  • Bachelor's degree from an AACSB-accredited business school in the United States with a GPA of 3.2 or higher.
  • Bachelor's, master's or doctorate degree in a STEM discipline (science, technology, engineering or mathematics) from a regionally-accredited university in the United States with a GPA of 3.2 or higher.
  • Bachelor's, master's or doctorate degree (in any discipline) from LMU with a GPA of 3.2 or higher.

If you have questions about whether you qualify for a GMAT/GRE waiver, please contact Dustin Cornwell, senior director of Graduate Business Programs.
