Full-Time MBA Admissions

Greetings from the MBA Admissions Office

Thank you for considering Marshall as a place to pursue your graduate management education. We seek to recruit a class that, as a whole, will be greater than the sum of its parts. Every candidate has strengths and weakness, just as each candidate has the capacity to learn and to teach.

What matters most to us is our learning community and how, through collaboration, we grow and learn together to collectively strengthen the Trojan Family. Thus, we do not believe in the concept of the “perfect” or “ideal” candidate. In fact, there are more atypical candidates than typical ones, and everyone has a unique story.

If you have the ambition, the commitment, and the motivation to begin this next phase of your life, we welcome the opportunity to hear your story.

Evan Bouffides
Assistant Dean and Director, Graduate Admissions
