Your profile looks terrific; with a
770 GMAT score, I believe you can easily make it to any
top B-School. Plus, your work experience makes your profile even more convincing; though your bachelor’s marks are a bit low, that can be ignored because of your other achievements.
Well, let me provide you with the overall eligibility criteria for Duke Fuqua Daytime MBA:
To graduate, students must complete at least 79-course credits (or 65-course credits if in a dual degree program) and have a GPA of at least 3.0. Students may be dismissed from the program if they fail to make satisfactory progress toward this goal. The following two criteria define good progress:
Students must complete a
minimum of 45-course credits in the first academic year of the program and 79-course credits by the end of the second academic year. Courses designated as required must be taken at the designated times unless the student has earned an exemption from the course, either by receiving an administrative exemption based on prior coursework or passing an exemption exam.
Students’ grades must exceed a minimum threshold defined by the following “strike system.” Students receive one strike for each F they earn and 0.5 strikes for each LP; these strikes accumulate through the program.
Your
leadership qualities are your most important feat, which will make your admission even smoother; you need to make sure you mention these points in your essay.
