<\/p>\nPhoto by Eccekevin<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Notre Dame\u2019s Catholic mission integrates heavily into its business school programs, which \u201cAsk More of Business.\u201d As part of this Catholic viewpoint<\/a>, Mendoza encourages students to avoid seeing human beings as means to an economic end. It also focuses on how global resources are limited, and that we should steward them wisely. While most MBA programs focus at least in part on business ethics, Notre Dame emphasizes the point much more than most.<\/p>\n Notre Dame Mendoza offers four different MBA programs: a 2-year program, a 1-year program, an Executive MBA, and a series of different dual degree programs. The university also offers a series of specialized Master\u2019s programs, in topics like Finance, Accounting, and Business Analytics.<\/p>\n Finally, in keeping with its mission, the University is known for its strong non-profit management programs. This includes a Masters of Nonprofit Administration.<\/p>\n The Notre Dame GMAT score average is reported as 690, with a 3.3 GPA and about 5 years of prior work experience<\/a>. The University does not post a Notre Dame GMAT minimum score requirement, though it cautions that a low GMAT score and little work experience can be a disadvantage.<\/p>\n Notre Dame\u2019s MBA programs accept applicants in two rounds. In 2013, Magoosh had the opportunity to interview Notre Dame\u2019s Associate Dean of Admissions, who offered us some inside tips on admissions at Mendoza<\/a>. Most importantly, the Dean notes that more spots are available during the first round of admissions, but that students shouldn\u2019t rush to meet Round 1 deadlines if it means they\u2019re submitting a weaker application. (Speaking of the application process, you may already know about our GMAT test prep offerings<\/a>, but did you know we also have application tips and resources<\/a> for you?)<\/p>\n Finally, Dean Mangus told us that students shouldn\u2019t focus narrowly on the numeric pieces of their application, like GPA and GMAT score. The admissions committee considers multiple aspects of a student\u2019s application. They want to be able to read a purpose or meaning from an application. In short, they want to see that a student is motivated and driven to enter the MBA program, and is not merely doing it out of some other professional obligation.<\/p>\n According to US News and World Report, Notre Dame\u2019s Mendoza School just cracks the top 30<\/a>, as the 29th best business school in the US. (The undergraduate program is much higher in US News\u2019 rankings, at number 11.)<\/p>\n Most rankings are in general agreement that Mendoza is a top twenty-something business school. The Economist, for example, says Notre Dame is number 23 across the nation, while Forbes also says it\u2019s number 22—in the world. To compare different sources, the University has helpfully provided a full overview of its rankings<\/a>.<\/p>\n If it\u2019s of any relevance, Bloomberg ranks Notre Dame\u2019s undergraduate programs at Mendoza as the second best in the nation<\/a>. While this isn\u2019t directly relevant to graduate-level programs, it\u2019s still good to know that you\u2019ll be surrounded by bright and high-achieving undergrads! Also, not all business schools even have undergraduate students on campus, so that\u2019s another advantage to consider when thinking about Notre Dame.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re looking for a business school that strongly values moral integrity when conducting business, then Notre Dame\u2019s Mendoza might be right for you. But keep in mind that Notre Dame GMAT scores are high, so admissions won\u2019t be easy. GMAT scores aren\u2019t the only factor in admissions, though. You\u2019ll be measured not just by numbers, but also by the content of your character, and your motivation for attending business school. If you can meet that lofty standard, then you\u2019re in!<\/p>\n The post Notre Dame GMAT: Everything You Need to Know<\/a> appeared first on Magoosh GMAT Blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Notre Dame\u2019s Mendoza School of Business uses the motto \u201cAsk More of Business\u201d to describe itself.
