Admission Requirements:
Indiana University's Kelley Direct Programs are highly selective. We want students whose academic background, work experience, leadership abilities, and communication skills meet the demands of the program and promise to further an already successful managerial career.
We have found that an understanding of analytical thinking and quantitative tools have a significant influence on success in our programs, so we expect you to be competent in algebra, be comfortable with the use of spreadsheets, and have a basic knowledge of statistics. But no matter what your academic experience or how unusual your background, we encourage you to apply.
Also, as this is an online program, we expect you to have at least basic internet, e-mail, and computer user skills. Please see our Technical Requirements for more information on hardware and software requirements of the program.
To determine if online education is right for you, please see the IU Distance Education Student Primer.
Students interested in taking courses in KD as a non-degree student should contact us via email.
As we evaluate degree and certificate applications, we consider:
YOUR ACADEMIC RECORD
We look at the cumulative grade point average from each institution you have attended, your area of concentration, the balance of verbal and communications courses and quantitative and analytical courses, and the trend of your grades.
YOUR GRADUATE MANAGEMENT ADMISSIONS TEST SCORES
We look for a good balance of verbal and quantitative scores. If you take the GMAT more than once, we look at your highest scores. Scores must be current (within five years of admission) to be considered valid.
Please see mba.com or contact your local Prometric Testing Center for information on how to register for the GMAT.
Applicants to certificate programs do not need to supply GMAT scores.
YOUR WORK EXPERIENCE
Most successful applicants have two or more years of relevant work experience after an undergraduate degree. We look at full-time and part-time job responsibilities, weighing skills, promotability within the organization, aptitude for a managerial career, and knowledge of the business environment.
Applicants to certificate programs do not need to supply resumes.
YOUR LEADERSHIP ABILITIES
We look at your record to see if you have worked well with other people in an organization and if you have demonstrated leadership abilities, whether on campus, in the community, or in the workplace. In the event your resume does not adequately highlight your leadership abilities, you may also submit a list of activities with your resume.
LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION
We review your letter of recommendation to gain a more complete understanding of who you are academically and professionally. As such, the most valuable letter of recommendation comes from someone who knows you well in one or both of these capacities.
Applicants to certificate programs do not need to supply letters of recommendation.

This section of the application is an opportunity to demonstrate your writing competency and communication skills, give examples of leadership, and discuss career goals. Provide any information that will help us decide if you can benefit from and contribute to Kelley Direct Programs.
