GMAT, GRE, and EA Test Scores

If you are planning to take the exam after you submit your application (either your first attempt or retaking an exam), please make sure you enter your future test date in your application, and email a copy of your unofficial score report to our office as soon as possible after the exam. All applications without an unofficial test score will be considered incomplete, and we cannot guarantee a decision by the posted notification deadline for incomplete applications.

Remember that test scores are just one part of your application, and there is no minimum score required.

Test Waivers

You may qualify for a test waiver if you meet one of the following conditions. 

1. Applicants with a bachelor's degree from a U.S. college or university in Business, Economics, or a STEM field with a GPA of 3.4 or greater, are not required to submit standardized test scores.
2. Applicants with a PhD with evidence of strong quantitative skills or an advanced medical degree, as listed below, are not required to submit standardized test scores.
   • PhD
   • MD
   • Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine
   • DDS or DMD
   • DVM
   • PharmD
3. Applicants who are alumni of UC Berkeley are not required to submit standardized test scores, however they are highly recommended for those with limited quantitative coursework. If you choose to not submit a test, you will be required to submit an essay that provides evidence of your quantitative readiness. 

For Fall 2025 admission, we only accept official scores from exams taken on or after October 1, 2019. These scores must also be verifiable with the testing agency. The testing agencies keep the scores for five years from the date the test was taken so you must submit your official scores to us directly from the testing agency prior to them expiring. Berkeley Haas keeps test score reports on file for two years only.

You may send us your exam results using the following institution codes:

• GMAT Institution Code: N2V-PT-16
• EA Institution Code: N2V-PT-16
• GRE Institution Code: 7884

NOTE: It is the applicant's responsibility to notify us at ewmbaadm@haas.berkeley.edu of new test scores and/or future exam dates for consideration.

Applicants must make arrangements directly with Pearson Vue to sit for the GMAT or EA, or ETS for the GRE, or to send results of previous tests to Berkeley Haas.
