Applicants will complete the MBA application, which will be reviewed by both programs' Graduate Admissions Committees. Both programs must independently accept the student for admission.

Applicants must meet the admission requirements for both the MSEP and MBA programs, summarized below.

No minimum grade point average is required for admission, however in general a GPA > 3.25 is expected in combination with a superior record of academic achievement.
Submission of official Graduate Record Examination (GRE) test scores. (Note: This requirement may be waived for any applicant that has previously completed a master's or doctoral degree program.) Although the MBA program accepts GMAT or GRE test scores, the GRE is required by the MSEP program (subject test not required). The results of this test, together with the academic record and professional recommendations, form the basis for admission decisions and the awarding of financial assistance.
Applicants are expected to have completed a bachelor's degree, preferably in a field relevant to environmental management (social science, natural science, environmental studies, or engineering).
Any degree earned internationally must be deemed equivalent to a U.S. bachelor degree. Official transcripts from all universities or colleges and other post-secondary educational institutions (including trade schools) attended. All transcripts must be submitted regardless of how many credits were earned.
Resume (when using our online application tool, you will be required to submit this along with your application).
Three letters of recommendation.
Two Essays (when using our online application tool, you will be required to submit this along with your application) that are one page each in length, double spaced:
Describe your career progress to date and your future short-term and long-term career goals. How do you expect an MBA from Clarkson University to help you achieve these goals and why now? (Note: This is the general MBA application essay, applicants are expected to incorporate their expectations of how the MSEP will facilitate achieving this goal.)
Describe a personal characteristic or something in your background that will help the Graduate Admission Committee to get to know you better.
Optional: If you feel there are extenuating circumstances of which the Committee should be aware, please explain them here (i.e. gaps in work experience, academic performance, choice of references, significant strengths or weaknesses to your application, etc.).
