What if I do not have a 2.6 undergraduate GPA or score at least 400 on the GMAT examination; is there any way that I can still be admitted into the MSM program?
Yes, there still are some paths available for admission. If the applicant has an undergraduate GPA relatively close to 2.6 and a GMAT score of at least 400, he/she may be allowed to take graduate courses under a provisional basis. For example, the provision may be that the applicant must score a B average (3.0) or above on the first three courses taken. This gives the applicant an opportunity to prove that despite a low undergraduate GPA, he/she can do graduate level work. If the applicant has an acceptable undergraduate GPA but a GMAT score below 400, the applicant may study for and retake the GMAT exam in an effort to achieve the minimum 400 score. The GMAT exam may be retaken as many times as the applicant wishes; we only need one exam score at or above 400.
