Apply Online
Submit the following to complete your application:
- An Olin application – Forms, essays and a résumé submitted online.

Transcripts should include all course work taken with corresponding grades and any transcript instructions/descriptions provided by the institution. Submit by electronic upload into the online application (2 MB maximum) or email to apply@olin.wustl.edu If you are unable to submit an unofficial copy, you may submit an official copy by mail.

Submit by electronic upload (preferred method) into the online application or email: apply@olin.wustl.edu.
GMAT or GRE – Olin requires either the GMAT or GRE, up to five years old. The GMAT institution code for the MS/SCM is R4T-WG-16. The GRE institution code is 4929. For GMAT information or registration, go to www.mba.com.
TOEFL or IELTS (Academic Format) – Required if your native language is not English, unless 1) you have completed an undergraduate or graduate degree at a college or university where the primary medium of instruction is English or 2) you have completed at least two or more years of study at a college or university in a country where the primary language is English. The TOEFL institution code for Washington University in St. Louis is 6929. The TOEFL or IELTS is not required for U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents.
-
References/Recommendations – We do not require or accept letters of recommendation. Rather, we ask that you submit names and contact information for two professional references as part of the online application. The Admissions Committee may or may not contact these references as part of its evaluation of your application.
- Application Fee. The application fee is $100 and payment can be made with a credit card.
- Personal Statement. We require that you submit one comprehensive personal statement regarding your interest in graduate management education and your personal and professional aspirations. We believe that this relatively open-ended requirement will allow you to more fully express your candidacy for our program.
If you are accepted for admission, you'll need to submit official transcripts and test scores. Request transcripts from each university or college you have attended. You must supply the original transcript even if the credit or grades are noted on another transcript. Enclose a self-addressed, postage-paid return envelope so the registrar can return the transcript to you.
Invitation-only interviews are conducted at the discretion of the Admissions Committee after the submission of a complete application.
If you submitted a previous application to the program prior to the last admissions cycle (before September 1, 2010), you must submit an entirely new application using the “Apply Online” link.
If you submitted a previous application to the program during our last admissions cycle (after September 1, 2010), you should not submit a new application. Rather, you should provide the following:
1) A brief note/letter that states that you wish to be re-evaluated for admission to the Class entering Fall 2012;
2) An updated resume;
3) An essay that describes anything that has occurred since your last application that may serve to strengthen your candidacy;
4) Any updated test scores (if applicable).
Please submit these directly by email to the Admissions Recruiter/Academic Advisor, Danielle Young, at dyoung23@wustl.edu. Upon submission, your application will be placed within the appropriate admissions round for evaluation.

What does it take to be admitted to Olin's MS/SCM Program?
We review each applicant on a number of factors, looking for individuals with strong academic, professional and extracurricular activities. We base our selections on your past performance, quantitative skills and communication skills. To ensure diversity in each entering class, we admit students with various backgrounds, experiences, talents and interests.
If you are applying from another college or university, you must have completed an undergraduate degree from an accredited institution (comparable to Washington University's four-year bachelor's degree) by the time you would begin the MS/SCM program. If you're a Washington University undergraduate student who is interested in pursuing a Masters of Science in Supply Chain Management degree, it is recommended that you contact the Specialized Masters Programs office prior to entering your junior year.
