GMAT & GRE

All applicants are required to take either the GRE or the GMAT, based on the field of study to which they are applying, regardless of previous experience and/or degrees. The GRE At Home and the GMAT Online exam will be accepted.

GRE and GMAT scores are valid for approximately five years from the date taken. For Fall 2025, we will accept GRE or GMAT scores from exams taken between December 1, 2019-December 1, 2024. 

Submitting GRE & GMAT Scores

All applicants must submit official test scores to Stanford GSB using the school code provided below. The admission committee may decide how they wish to evaluate the scores provided. 

Due to the volume of applications we receive we cannot confirm receipt of official test scores. If we need any additional information we will reach out to you directly.

Self-Reported Scores

To self-report your GRE or GMAT scores, list all tests you took within the past five years that you wish to be considered by the admission committee. Do not enter “superscores” (a single entry that includes your highest section scores from multiple test dates).

Any scores you self-report on the application are considered unofficial but sufficient for the initial review process. 

Official Scores

Official test scores should be sent to Stanford GSB using Stanford’s ETS institutional code 4704. Individual department code numbers are not necessary. As long as you select the institutional code of 4704, your score(s) will be electronically delivered to Stanford
