Admissions

Online application

A short online application, which asks questions about your personal history, academic background and professional experience, is required to apply.

Undergraduate transcript and Grade Point Average (GPA: final grade)

You will be required to provide an unofficial¹ transcript from your undergraduate program, complete with courses, grades and a copy of your diploma. Depending on nationality, uploads of your Clave Única de Registro de Población (CURP) and cedula are also required. Strong candidates will have a minimum GPA or average of 80/100 (or equivalent). However, applicants with a lower minimum GPA may still be reviewed and can strengthen their application in the following ways:

• Submitting an additional letter of recommendation
• Submitting transcript(s) and diploma(s) for other graduate-level courses
• Submitting any additional graduate-level test scores for the PAEP (Prueba de Admisión a Estudios de Posgrado), GMAT, GRE or Executive Assessment
• Expressly stating any factors that contributed to GPA performance in addition to the personal statement and explaining efforts to ensure academic success at the graduate level

Resume/curriculum vitae (CV)

You will be required to deliver your resume/CV with dates for each job you have held and school or academic institution you have attended. You may also include volunteer work, part-time jobs and extracurricular activities. You are not required to submit your CV in any particular format.

Graduate admissions test score or waiver

• For candidates with 3 to 5 years of professional experience, a PAEP (Prueba de Admisión a Estudios de Posgrado), GMAT, GRE or Executive Assessment is required.
• Candidates with 5 or more years of professional experience are eligible for a Graduate Admissions Test waiver.
• Please speak to your Admissions Counselor for details.

English proficiency

To accommodate our diverse cohorts, our program is conducted entirely in English, and we require a demonstration of English proficiency to apply. To meet this requirement, you can submit:

• A proficiency waiver: Waivers are available if you can prove English proficiency through an interview with your admissions counselor. Reach out to the admissions team at admissions@negociosenlinea.egade.tec.mx or Phone Number: +52 55 5351 2587 to learn more.
• Test scores: You may submit scores from the TOEFL iBT®, IELTS or an equivalent exam (speak to your admissions counselor for a list of acceptable exams). The TOEFL iBT® is preferred if available in your area. We ask for a minimum score of 79 on the TOEFL iBT® or 5-6.5 (B2) on the IELTS.
• Transcripts: Scores are not required if you previously demonstrated English proficiency through an exam at Tecnológico de Monterrey or an institution where English was the primary language of instruction. You must submit transcripts from these institutions to meet the requirement. Consult with an admissions counselor to verify the validity of previous exams.

Application fee

A fee of 500 MXN is required to apply.

• What is your main motivation for pursuing your MBA with EGADE Business School?
