Other requirements
General requirements
- A minimum admissions index score of 1250 is required to be considered for admission. The index is based on the formula GPA x 200 + GMAT (and a TOEFL of 580 for ESL students).
- There is not a minimum GMAT score requirement. However, successful candidates typically exceed 650.
- We prefer the GMAT, but we do accept the GRE test as a substitute. In either case, the exam must have been taken within 5 years of the time of application to WSU.
- A GMAT conversion will be applied to the GRE score submitted by applicants who take the GRE in lieu of the GMAT.
- The Educational Testing Service (ETS) provides a conversion chart. The converted GRE score will then be applied to the Carson College of Business admissions index score in the same manner as a standard GMAT score.
