Application Process

Chicago Booth admits new students into the Executive MBA Program according to the deadlines below. The process has two main components:

• Application - You must complete an application and provide supporting details by the relevant deadlines.
• Admissions Interview - Interviews will be granted on an invitation-only basis after evaluation of a submitted application. Interviews are conducted by admissions staff, students, or alumni on campus. All interviews, regardless of who conducts them, receive equal weight in the evaluation process.

All candidates are informed of admission decisions via email or postal mail. For more information see the admissions decisions section.

Submission Deadline

Your application must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. local time on the day of the deadline in order to be considered for an application round. This includes receipt of all online and mailed-in materials. Applications submitted after a deadline will automatically be considered in the next round as long as all materials are included with the application.

We encourage all applicants to apply early, as there is a limited number of seats available.
