You need to have a completed application to be considered for admission. That means that you have to have a GMAT score (at least 500), a TOEFL score if you are an international student, hold an undergraduate degree, have your statement of purpose, letters of recommendation, resume, transcripts (at least a 2.75 GPA) and all the other material in to us so that our graduate admissions committee can evaluate your application.
For nine consecutive years, the Princeton Review has rated the College of Business Administration at The University of Akron as one of the best business schools in the nation. Regardless of the field you choose, at Akron you have the opportunity to learn from business faculty involved in business and dedicated to sharing their knowledge with you.
Current students and alumni point to our dedication to meeting the needs of our students by providing an excellent education and solid support service to help students succeed. All of our graduate business programs are flexible, allowing you to study on a full or part time basis. Course loads can vary so that a student can tailor their studies to accommodate work or family driven activities, such as Tax season for accountants or summer vacations for families.
Your degree, your way. That is clearly an advantage of Akron.
