Hello! I’m Marie Dillon and I am the admissions officer for the MBA Program. And as you apply to the program, I will be your main contact and help you through the process as you gather your materials and learn more about the program.

For the MBA program, please go online and fill out an application. You are welcome to either send all of your materials to us at once or you can send them piece by piece. We require you to submit a resume, a Statement of Purpose – which is where you really talk about why you are interested in our MBA program, what you can contribute to the program, and what you hope to gain from the program. We also require you to submit two letters of recommendation. We prefer them to be one from an academic professor or one from a…and one professional letter of recommendation. But we really want people that know you the most. So if you’ve been out of school for a while, we would be happy to receive your professional letters of recommendation. We also require applicants to submit a Management Problem Analysis.

Management Problem Analysis is a writing sample that showcases your analytical abilities. It should be about a management problem that you’ve experienced or read about and we want to know how you would have solved the problem. We also require you to submit your university transcripts and a GMAT.So if all of your materials are collected, I will send you an email to let you know that your application’s complete and you will go into review at the next batch of applications.

The college provides its students with much financial aid as possible. More information about financial aid opportunities can be found at our financial aid website. And please feel free to contact one of our financial aid staff members for more questions.

You can find a lot of information about the program on our website but if you really wanna learn about the program and talk about your interests and your fit with the MBA program, we encourage you to come and schedule a visit to learn, to meet with faculty, meet with students, attend a class, and get a feel for what our community is like. To schedule a visit, please just send me an email or call our office and I will be happy to arrange that for you.
