GMAT, GRE, GPA, & TOEFL
Q. How long are GMAT scores valid?
A: Ross will keep GMAT scores on file for two years. Test scores are valid for five years from the date you took the test to the deadline date when you apply; scores more than five years old are not acceptable. We encourage you to take the GMAT no later than one month prior to the application deadline, and preferably earlier. If you take the test close to an application deadline, we ask that you to include an unofficial score report with your application if it is available.
Q. What is the minimum GMAT required for admission to the MSCM program?
A: There is no minimum score requirement. Students are, however, always compared to the current pool of applicants. Because this is our inaugural year, we are unable to give past statistics. The GMAT scores of students admitted into the Ross MBA program is a potential benchmark; the middle 80% of students admitted into the Ross MBA program scored between 640-760. Please keep in mind that your GMAT scores are only one of a number of criteria we review in determining admission. If your scores are below our average or do not fall within this range, we still encourage you to apply. You may, however, want to consider retaking the GMAT to improve your score.
Q. How long will it take for my GMAT scores to be sent to Ross after I take the test?
A: Academic institutions generally receive scores within 10 business days after the test is given. It has been known to take longer, so allow plenty of time.

If you are uncertain as to whether we will receive your official scores by the deadline, you can fax your unofficial score report to our office at 734-763-7804 or send it via the postal service to 701 Tappan, Room E2540, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-1234.
