Please follow these instructions to submit your application forms and supporting documents.

   The MU Application

   Note: Please be sure to complete the correct application form.  Please note that a few of these directions reflect a new policy of the university Graduate School effective 10/15/2009.  Primarily, this affects currently enrolled MU undergraduate students.

   • MU Graduate School Application - for students new to MU (domestic or international), students currently enrolled at MU as an undergraduate, MU graduates who are not currently enrolled as a student, or students enrolled in an MU professional school (e.g. law or medicine).
   • Change of Degree Form (PDF) -  for students currently enrolled in another graduate program at MU, or as a non-degree graduate student.
   • Re-enrollment Form - for students previously enrolled in the MU MBA program.

   Application Fee

   Please send a check or money order made payable to the University of Missouri or complete the credit card information on the online MU application. The amount is $45 for domestic and $60 for international students. The application fee is non refundable and is not applicable to any future fees. New Policy effective October 15:  Students currently enrolled as undergraduates at MU are now required to submit the $45 fee.

   Official Transcripts of All Previous College or University Work

   Please request that each college or university send official transcripts to the above address; transcripts sent directly to the applicant must be in a sealed envelope. A duplicate set of official transcripts should be sent to the MBA program directly as indicated in paragraph #2 below.  All transcripts become the property of MU and will be destroyed after one year if the applicant does not enroll. If you attended MU, we will obtain your transcripts and you need not do so, although you do need to provide transcripts of any course work taken after your earlier MU enrollment. 

   International Students

   An Official TOEFL or IELTS score is required for every applicant whose native language is not English. The minimum TOEFL score requirement for the College of Business is 550 (paper-based), 213 (computer-based), or 79-80 (internet-based). MU's code 6875. The minimum IELTS score is 5.5.  Please visit the MU Graduate School web site for additional application information.

2. The second set of materials should be submitted directly to the MU Crosby MBA Program. Again, you are encouraged to apply online. When it is necessary to mail items, send to:

   Crosby MBA Program, 213 Cornell Hall, Columbia, Mo. 65211.
