Standardized Test Information (GRE, GMAT, MAT and TOEFL)
Standardized tests are examinations given in the US and internationally by a US-based testing company. If a certain examination is stated as an admission requirement, you should know that your application will not be evaluated and reviewed until we have received the results of the examination. However, we expect and encourage you to submit your application for admission even if you have not yet taken the examination. Tell us on the application form when you will take the examination, and we will attach your score report to your file when it is received.
The primary entrance examinations used by the Graduate School include the GRE (Graduate Record Exam), GMAT (Graduate Management Aptitude Test), MAT (Miller's Analogies Test), and TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language). With the exception of the TOEFL, individual departments determine which standardized tests are required for application to their program. Standardized test requirements for each program are listed in the Graduate Catalog.
In order for Bradley University to receive your test scores, you must designate Bradley University as a recipient by identifying Bradley by the institutional code number 1070. All score reports are delivered directly to the Graduate School. If you have a copy of your score report, we encourage you to send us a copy of your results with your application, which we can use until your official scores are reported.
