The deadlines to submit your application for the Class of 2015, to begin studies in August 2013 are detailed below. Deadlines occur on the 15th of each calendar month and decisions are released approximately 6 weeks later.

You can submit your completed application at any time before the final deadline. You are encouraged to submit early, when the maximum number of class seats and scholarship awards are available.

Applicants submitting by 15 November will be given priority consideration for scholarships.

Class Visits and Interviews

We encourage all applicants to join us for a class visit. Class visits provide a great opportunity to experience Darden’s case method and top-ranked faculty, and to speak with our current students.

Qualified applicants will be invited to interview after their application has been reviewed by the Admissions Committee. Interviews play a critical role in our assessment of candidates and are required prior to admittance into the program. If you are invited for an interview, we will try to schedule it on a day when a class visit is available.

Contact our Admissions Office

We encourage you to contact us if you need to discuss the content or timing of your application. Please e-mail us at GEMBA@darden.virginia.edu, and we'll be glad to schedule a conversation.
