Master's Degree GPA and MBA Admission

by ku3184 » Sat Oct 20, 2012 11:20 am
How much is a Mastes GPA considered in MBA Admission?

My Masters GPA (3.6) is lower than my undergrad GPA (I was in the top 3%). I am at a Top 5 School for my Master's program. I am just wondering how this will look to admissions, especially for Top 10 schools?

Hi ku3184,

Your Master's degree GPA will be considered along with your undergraduate GPA. However, I would not be concerned that a GPA of 3.6 will hurt your chances of acceptance into a top MBA program.

Which MBA programs are you considering?
