Current GWSB Graduate Degree Students

All current students in good academic standing (cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher) enrolled in a graduate degree program within the GW School of Business (GWSB) are eligible to be considered for admission to a graduate certificate program after one full semester of completed coursework. Current graduate students may combine their degree with a graduate certificate. Courses completed for the certificate may be applied towards the elective requirements. After speaking with their academic advisor, students may apply by completing and submitting the MBA & Specialized Master's Additional Graduate Certificate Credential Form.
Non-GWSB Students

To be considered for admission, applicants must hold a bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited college or university. Previous academic history, letters of recommendation, demonstrated motivation and aptitude to undertake graduate-level work, and professional experience are all taken into consideration.

Please note: Graduate certificate registration does not qualify for federal financial aid, but students may seek private loans to fund their study.

To apply, you must complete the online application and provide transcripts from each undergraduate and graduate academic institution as well as a professional resume, one letter of recommendation, and a statement of purpose. GMAT or GRE scores are not needed.

Prior Academic Records

Applicants are required to upload and submit copies of transcripts from all undergraduate and graduate institutions attended, whether or not the program was completed or the credit appears as a transfer credit on another transcript.

We consider these uploaded transcripts to be “unofficial” as they are submitted by the applicant. Applicants who receive an offer of admission will be required at that time of enrollment to submit official final transcripts. An acceptable transcript is a copy of an official transcript produced by the institution.

If submitting transcripts from a foreign institution, please reference the International Student Requirements section for detailed information on requirements.
