Short Answer – The average GMAT score at Indiana Kelly is 652 for the last entering class. If you score above 652, you have a fair shot and you will receive an encouraging response to your profile evaluation from the admission committee.
Long Answer – There is no such thing as a safe score, higher is always better. In our years of consulting experience, we have seen our clients with 640 getting selected into top schools like INSEAD and on the other hand, someone with a 770 getting rejected too. A good benchmark that we advise all our clients to beat is the average GMAT score of the last entering class as mentioned in the Class profile published every year. Scoring above the average gets you a fair shot;
“The higher your score, the better is it for your interview or admission chance.”
If you plan to apply with a score that is below the average, then you are starting a fight with one hand tied behind your back or, let’s say, you are starting a few yards behind your competitors. You can definitely catch up in other sections of the application by writing outstanding essays or performing really well in an interview later. But it is always nice to start ahead of the competitor. A higher GMAT score helps one gain a competitive advantage.
“What if you are from the over represented Indian or Asian Pool?”
The over-represented candidate pool of Indian or Chinese applicants usually goes through a rigorous preparation process for GMAT, with a lot of Indian applicants scoring quite high. Hence, the overall competition and the Average score for this diaspora goes up by a few notches. That is why we recommend candidates within the most over-represented profiles to shoot at least 20 points higher than the school’s class profile average.

Yes. All students, domestic and international, can apply for scholarships. To learn more about opportunities and the decision process, please visit the Scholarships page.
You must have the equivalent of a four-year US bachelor’s degree, which will be determined by the Office of International Services (OIS) in a bachelor’s degree equivalency review prior to the application being reviewed by the Kelley Direct admissions committee. Please visit the OIS equivalent degrees page for more information.
OIS will list your required documents in Atlas so you will have an exact record of what needs to be submitted. However, as a general rule, students will need to submit records from every institution previously attended, which can include transcripts or mark sheets, degree certificates, etc. Original language documents and a line-by-line English language translation will be required if your documents aren’t in English. Incoming students with questions about the document list should email [email protected] to speak with OIS.
There is no minimum required score, but the average is near 670. A lower score may be compensated for by strength in other aspects of your application. GMAT scores are valid for five years.
While we don’t require work experience, it is rare to be offered admission without it. We like to see students with at least two years of full-time, post-undergraduate work experience. On average, our MBA students have five years of full-time experience. Most students find their MBA experience far richer and their post-MBA career options far greater if they have a base of professional work experience to build on as they move through the program.
