MBA/MSGSCM Application Requirements

• Meet PSU minimum admission requirements
• Professional resume
• Unofficial transcripts/mark sheets from any institution where a bachelor's degree was awarded and any institution where graduate-level credits were completed. Upon admission, applicants will be required to provide official transcripts from these institutions. Visit the PSU Admissions website for detailed transcript requirements.
• Potential interview by the admissions committee. After an initial application review, select candidates may be invited to an on-campus or virtual interview.
• $67 application fee - Attend an Information Session to waive this.
• Contact information for two or more references (at least one professional reference preferred). Forms will be emailed to these contacts and we must receive at least two submissions before applications are reviewed.
• Essay questions (1 video and 3 written): Essays are your opportunity to tell us who you are beyond your GPAs, test scores and resume. Use this opportunity to provide us with a better understanding of your personal journey, unique background and goals associated with the program.
  • Video essay (1): Applicants are required to record a one-minute video of themselves answering the following question - "Introduce yourself and tell us your story. What led you to apply to this program?" The application system provides detailed guidance on how to complete this process. Reading your response is strongly discouraged.
  • Written essays (3):
    • 250 words maximum per essay question
    • Answers to all three questions are required
    • See questions below
• GMAT and GRE Optional: We recognize that standardized exams are not always a fair reflection of a candidate's abilities as a result of the inequity of those exams. Therefore we have suspended the GMAT and GRE requirement. This means the GMAT or GRE are no longer required for admission. We recommend that applicants with undergraduate or graduate GPAs lower than 3.0 consider taking the GMAT or GRE to improve the competitiveness of their application. However, we may require the completion of self-paced online primers from admitted students who need additional preparation.
