The Bauer College of Business MBA Admissions committee strongly encourages prospective students to apply as early as possible . Applications are considered as long as space is available, or the semester deadline, whichever comes first.  Therefore, applicants who wait until the last possible moment to submit an application might not be admitted; and, if admitted, might not receive their first choice of cohorts. 

Please note , the admissions review process does not begin until all required documents are received (please see above for a list of the required documents). Once all the required documents have been received, the applicant's file is complete; and the application is then reviewed by the admissions committee.  If admitted, the applicant is mailed an acceptance letter and an “Intent to Enroll” form. Upon receipt of the signed “Intent to Enroll” form, the student will be placed in a cohort.

Please feel free to contact the Houston MBA Program Office if you have any questions.  Application status will only be given via email.   We can be reached by email: houstonmba@uh.edu, or by phone: 713.743.0700.
