FAQs

  • There are no prerequisites for admission, but applicants are encouraged to review the curriculum online and ensure that they have the necessary math and programming skills needed to be successful in the required coursework. Our application also asks about your familiarity and comfort level with certain programming languages.

  • The short answer is no. While some MBAn applicants have several years of experience, this is not a requirement for admission. A significant number of our students are recent college graduates who have completed an internship before enrolling in the MBAn program. Others have up to three years of full-time work experience.

  • Yes, an internship is professional work experience and will be considered in your application. Your internship may either be paid or unpaid, as long as you were hired directly from the Human Resources department at that company.

  • If you are invited to interview, you will meet one-on-one with a member of the Admissions Committee. The interview is both behavioral and technical. As part of the technical interview, you may be asked math, probability, statistics and/or computer science questions relevant to fields of data science and analytics. You will also be asked behavioral questions that help us to learn more about how you work with a team, make decisions, and solve problems. Your interview will last about 30 minutes. All interviews will be conducted virtually.

  • Yes! The interview is an important and required component of the admissions process. Our goal with the interview is to get to know you better and understand the strengths you’ll bring to the MIT Sloan community. During the interview, we also look for professional presence and communication, as well as English language proficiency.

  • The GRE and GMAT are components of the application process and play an important role in our evaluation process. If your current situation prevents you from being able to submit a test score, the MBAn program will allow candidates to submit their application without the test and review their submitted material as is and without negative inferences.

  • We assess English language ability during our interviews.

  • No. This is not required to apply to the MBAn program.

  • One letter must come from someone who can speak to your quantitative abilities. A suggestion would be a faculty member from a STEM discipline. If you are a current student, you should submit three academic letters of recommendation. If you are working full-time, you should submit two academic letters of recommendation and one letter from your most recent employer.

  • No, the MBAn program does not have rolling admissions. Applications will be reviewed after the deadline.
