Admission FAQ

Email: mba@bu.edu
- What is the typical demographic of the Two-Year MBA?
- We are committed to enrolling qualitatively excellent incoming classes that represent global, ethnic, and demographic diversity. We have 38% women in our two-year program, which ranks among the highest percentages in the country. Most of our students have at least two-years of professional work experience in a myriad of industries and functions. Undergraduate backgrounds vary, with the highest percentage actually coming from the humanities and social science. Our students are active, involved, and eager to learn. They're friendly as a group, but driven. They are the managers and leaders of tomorrow. Learn more about our students: http://management.bu.edu/admissions/life/index.html.
- What makes the Boston University School of Management unique?
- There are several things that make Boston University School of Management unique. The first differentiator is our approach. Our curriculum is built on cross-functional thinking. We teach students to think of the organization as an interconnected whole, where decisions in one area affect results in another. Using collaborative teaching and sharing case studies across several courses at once, our students learn to see that decisions within organizations have multiple audiences and ramifications.

Using collaborative teaching and sharing case studies across several courses at once, our students learn to see that decisions within organizations have multiple audiences and ramifications.
The second aspect that differentiates BU from other schools is our specific focus on team learning. Organizations increasingly depend on teams. Thus, team learning is an integral part of this School's educational process. We believe that to be an effective team leader, first you need to understand team dynamics. And that's one of the fundamentals of the School's curriculum.
Lastly, our students gain an unprecedented technological mastery. Leveraging our outstanding information systems expertise, we have woven the discussion of technologies into an increasing number of our courses. We're not teaching people to become programmers; we're teaching people to harness and optimize the technological tools around us.

Read less - Do you require an interview?
- After submitting an application, many candidates are invited to interview with us. This is a very important component of the selection process, and we invite as many candidates as possible based on our capacity. We are committed to admitting superior students who will complement each other in our cross-functional, team-learning environment and will continue to support one another long after graduation. We offer in-person interviews both on-campus and in cities around the world. We also offer telephone interviews for applicants who are unable to meet us in person.
