MBA Admissions

Professionals consider graduate studies for a variety of reasons - some to advance their careers and others to continue their education in order to add new depth to their lives' work.  Whatever your reasons, we understand the commitment you're considering.  Students from all academic disciplines are invited to apply to Oklahoma Christian University's Master of Business Administration program, provided that they hold a bachelors degree from a regionally accredited college or university.

Admission Requirements

To apply to the Graduate School of Business, the following materials must be submitted:

  • A completed online application (including an application fee)
  • Official transcripts from the college or university that granted your bachelors degree and any other institutions attended before or after that time.  A cumulative GPA of 3.0 is required for admission; however, students with a GPA between 2.5 and 3.0 may be admitted on probation, which will be removed upon completion of 12 graduate credit hours with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 and/or any other deficiencies.
