How Will Covid-19 Affect My Application?

Stanford Graduate School of Business won’t be extending its Round 3 deadline – keeping it at April 8 2020 at 2pm Pacific Time. Stanford says the needs of all applicants must be met as Round 3 includes defer-eligible applicants and applicants who wish to enroll directly in September 2020.

All On-Campus Information Sessions, Class Visits, Stanford GSB Tours, and in-person Chats with Students have been canceled until further notice. There are online alternatives for Information Sessions and Campus Tours, and new online offerings will continue to be added.
