MBA PROGRAM APPLICATION DEADLINES

Student Profile Stanford MBA Class of 2017Almost every statistic in the Stanford MBA class profile changes from year to year. Because our classes are small, even two students can, and do, shift a percentage here or there. Our class profile is always changing because we admit individuals, not categories. There are no quotas or targets in the admission process, and each applicant is evaluated entirely on his or her own merit.
