Admission to the Rollins Saturday MBA Program (SMBA) is selective and based upon an evaluation of all application materials submitted by a candidate. Our admissions policy helps ensure that our classes are composed of individuals who represent diverse backgrounds, exercise integrity, and demonstrate management potential. Academic records, score on the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), previous and current professional experience, leadership, and motivation are among the factors evaluated during the admission process.

The Saturday MBA Program enrolls one class each year. Since admission is granted on a rolling basis, it is to your advantage to submit an application as early as possible.

Applicants must meet the specified admission requirements to be eligible for admission to the Saturday MBA program offered by the Crummer Graduate School of Business. However, simply meeting these requirements does not ensure acceptance. In order to be considered for admission, a prospective student must provide the following:

Application for Admission
We encourage prospective students to apply online. You may also download and print a copy of the application and the necessary forms. A $50 dollar application fee, which is non-refundable, must accompany the completed application form. Checks or money orders should be made payable to Rollins College. The application is self-explanatory and you are encouraged to complete all information carefully.

Statement of Purpose
The Crummer School Admissions Committee uses your statement of purpose to evaluate several areas of your candidacy. First, your statement of purpose demonstrates the thoroughness of your career planning and preparation. Second, your statement of purpose often reveals your strengths as well as areas of opportunities. Finally, your statement of purpose demonstrates your written communication skills. Please proofread your work for both spelling and grammar. Statements with these errors reflect a lack of attention to detail. The suggested length for your statement of purpose is between 500 and 1,000 words.

Transcripts
Official transcripts of all academic course work must be submitted in sealed envelopes, signed by the appropriate university officials. Students who have attended or graduated from a foreign college or university must provide an official transcript and a translation into English from World Education Services (WES). Information on document to document evaluation can be found at http://wes.org/. You may request information via email at info@wes.org, or contact them via telephone at 1-800-937-3895.

Letters of Recommendation
Two letters of recommendation are required.  The letters should be written by individuals who are familiar with your work performance. A letter from your immediate supervisor is strongly encouraged. Letters should be sent in a timely manner and are required for your application to be considered complete. The Saturday MBA admissions office often contacts these individuals during the application review process. Although a minimum of two letters are required, it is acceptable to submit more.

Résumé
Your résumé outlines your career progression and highlights significant accomplishments. You will be creating résumés to help market yourself throughout your MBA experience. Take some time with your resume and use it to reveal your strengths and potential for success.

Test Scores (GMAT or GRE)
All applicants are required to submit an official score on the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). Official scores should be sent directly to the school. The GMAT/GRE requirement may be waived for applicants who have earned a graduate-level degree; however EAMBA applicants wishing to be considered for scholarship funds should submit a score on the GMAT even if they have a graduate degree.

Test preparation courses are offered through the Rollins College Management and Executive Education Center.

Interviews
All applicants to the SMBA program are required to participate in a personal interview with the Director. Interviews help us assess an applicant's qualifications and afford the applicant an opportunity to further discuss his or her credentials and qualifications. Once you have submitted an application, you will be contacted by our office to schedule an interview appointment. In order for your interview to be productive and thorough, all admission materials should be received by our office prior to your appointment.
