MEIM Admission Requirements
- Undergraduate degree. Candidates must have an undergraduate degree from an accredited university in the United States or its equivalent abroad.
- Quantitative Background. Because of the quantitative nature of the program and because we want you to be prepared for the curriculum, the faculty of the Heinz School requires that all students complete a college level course in advanced algebra/pre-calculus prior to enrollment. It is suggested that students interested in enrolling at the Heinz School also complete college level courses in economics and statistics in preparation for their graduate studies. Students who have not completed these courses are invited to apply for admission to their program of interest. Students who have not completed these courses may be required to enroll in and successfully complete (earn a grade of B or higher) the Heinz School’s Quantitative Skills Summer Program (QSSP) as a condition of their offer of admission. QSSP is a five to seven week intensive program offered by the Heinz School prior to the start of the Fall semester covering applied pre-calculus and problem application, graphing, basic statistics and probability, spreadsheets and statistical software skills. You will not be charged tuition for the program but you will be expected to pay for books, other course materials, and living expenses. Additional information regarding QSSP is available here
