Dear, Greetings from the Olin Business School at Washington University in St. Louis! As you consider your graduate school options, I would like to make you aware of a number of significant changes to this year’s application process: Standardized Test Scores – Olin now accepts either the GMAT or the GRE. Letters of Recommendation – We neither require nor accept letters of recommendation. Rather, we ask that you simply list two professional references in our online application. Personal Statement – Rather than asking you for an assorted series of short essay responses, we require that you submit one comprehensive personal statement regarding your interest in graduate management education and your personal and professional aspirations. We believe that this relatively open-ended requirement will allow you to more fully express your candidacy for our program. In order to learn more about the application process or about our offerings, visit our main website at www.olin.wustl.edu. Please let us know if I can be of any assistance. We look forward to reading your application.
