Please review the application instructions and requirements listed below.
A complete application consists of the following:
Incomplete applications will not be reviewed.
Please complete each section: Personal Information, Contact Information, Education, Test Scores, and Employment History.
Please prepare a business résumé that includes your employment history in reverse chronological order, with titles, dates, and whether you worked part-time or full-time. Your educational record should also be in reverse chronological order and should indicate dates of attendance and degree(s) earned or expected. Other information appropriate to a business résumé is welcomed and encouraged. The résumé should not be more than two pages in length.
On the application, please list the names of at least two, but no more than three individuals who will provide recommendations on your behalf. These may be professors, employers, supervisors or others who are able to evaluate your motivation, intelligence, creativity and potential. At least one academic recommendation is strongly preferred.
A recommendation may be provided electronically online (preferred) or as a hardcopy paper form. Be sure to indicate which format each of your recommenders prefers.
ONLINE RECOMMENDATIONS
Once you list the necessary information, the application system will send notification and instructions via email to those recommenders who will be providing their letters electronically.
MAILED RECOMMENDATIONS
If a recommender elects to submit a paper evaluation, you should provide that individual with a hardcopy evaluation form. Please allow sufficient time for the recommendation to be written and mailed to you. Please advise recommenders to use your formal full name as it is entered on the application, not your nickname, so that we can match it with your application.
Each paper recommendation should be mailed in a sealed envelope, with the evaluator's signature across the seal, to:

All applicants, including those from the United States and those with advanced degrees, must take either the GMAT or GRE (General Test only). Test scores are valid for five years, therefore, only tests taken after September 1, 2004 will be considered.
For the GRE, the M.Fin. institution code is 3845
For the GMAT, the M.Fin. school code is X5X-QS-69.
All applicants whose first language is not English are required to present evidence of their ability to engage in studies in English by submitting either the IELTS or TOEFL score. This requirement will be waived only if the applicant has earned a Bachelor's degree from a school where English is the primary language of instruction. Master’s or other graduate degrees do not qualify for a TOEFL/IELTS waiver.
The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is strongly preferred; minimum score 7.0. The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is also acceptable. For visa certification, MIT requires a minimum TOEFL score of 577 (paper-based); 233 (computer-based), or 91 (internet based).
For the TOEFL, the M.Fin. institution code is 3845.
The fee for applying to the MIT Sloan M.Fin. Program is currently $100, payable by credit card online when you submit your completed application.
MIT Sloan's reputation for strong academics combined with faculty who are dynamic thinkers and world leaders in their respective fields gives students a powerful and transformational academic experience.
