Admissions

The application process for Smith's Executive MBA program is a rolling admissions process. Once a file is complete it is considered. However, applicants are encouraged to apply early as each boardroom location has limited space and availability and classes fill quickly.

A dedicated Application Advisor will work with prospective students to complete the admissions process. The Advisor will first provide an initial preliminary assessment to determine eligibility, and once an applicant’s candidacy for the EMBA program is determined, the Advisor will outline final steps and present the completed file to the Admissions Committee.

There is no fee to apply to Smith's Executive MBA program.
