Score Submission and Minimum Requirements

For the purposes of admission, applicants may upload the Test Taker Score Report to the Apply2B portal, provided that it includes:

• The applicant’s full name and surname
• The Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning section scores

However, applicants are strongly encouraged to designate Bocconi University as the official recipient of their scores by using the GRE DI Code: 1517, so that the Admissions Office can receive the official report directly from ETS.

Minimum score required to be considered for admission:
A combined score from the Verbal and Quantitative sections is required. No minimum individual section score is set, but both must be present and valid.
 

Here's a list of score combinations that meet the minimum requirement for applying:

For international applicants, a 600 GMAT Score (or an official GRE equivalent to GMAT 600, with at least 150 in the quantitative and verbal sections) is compulsory to enroll in the IM Asia - DD Bocconi-Essec or the IM Concentration – DD ESSEC Luxury Management programs. However, candidates who already meet this requirement during the selection phase, will be preferred.
