GMAT or GRE is required and a good GMAT or GRE score would enhance your application. The GMAT or GRE score provides us with another platform to evaluate your application especially if academic results, work experience, etc are not comparable with other applicants. Please note that a low GMAT or GRE score will not exclude your application from being considered. There is no minimum cut-off score for GMAT or GRE. Either the GMAT or GRE is accepted. Original copies of the test scores are required. You must have taken the test within the last five years of submitting your application.

You can submit your application if the rest of your application is completed, even if you have not taken the GMAT/GRE. However, you should take the test before the closing deadline which is the end of March. You should also indicate in the application form your GMAT/GRE test date so that we know when to expect your score report. We will not process your application without your GMAT/GRE score as your application is deemed incomplete without them, unless you are granted an exemption. Please email us your unofficial scores as soon as you receive them and arrange with the test centre for the official score report to be sent to us.
