Please Note:
Admission to graduate or post-baccalaureate study at Mills College is contingent upon the possession of a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university. If you are still completing your degree at the time of application, send official transcripts showing work completed and in progress.
Immediately upon completion of the baccalaureate degree requirements, it is your responsibility to send a final transcript with the degree posted to our office.

In addition to the regular graduate admission requirements, all applicants to the MBA Program are required to complete an MBA supplemental application, which includes the submission of a resume.
At this time, the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is optional for admission to the Lokey Gradute School of Business. If you would like your GMAT score to be a factor in evaluating your application for admission, please have your score sent to the Office of Graduate Admission. The Lokey Graduate School of Business is a GMAT-score-receiving school (Mills College: #4485).
As part of the review process, the Admissions Committee interviews most applicants, either in person, by phone, or via skype. If invited, you will be contacted to schedule an appointment once your application is complete. This interview is separate from an informational consultation that you may wish to schedule with the Associate Director of MBA Admissions earlier in the application process.
International students should be aware of the Special Information for International Student section which outlines additional admission requirements.
