Our plain-English summary of MIT Sloan's own admissions materials, not the school's verbatim words. Read the source before you rely on it.
MIT Sloan is strictly behavioral: past action as evidence of future success. It reads for hands-on problem solving, data-driven decisions, and building things (mens et manus).
MIT Sloan's official admissions criteria · Checked Jul 18, 2026
MIT Sloan seeks students whose personal characteristics demonstrate that they will make the most of the incredible opportunities at MIT. Write a cover letter to the admissions committee (up to 300 words).
Every applicant has a story that can't be captured in a resume. Take up to 90 seconds to share yours: who you are, where you come from, and what's shaped the person you are today. (Single take: no editing, music, or subtitles.)
A randomly generated, open-ended question answered live in the application (short prep window, ~60-second response).
Wording is reproduced verbatim from MIT Sloan's official page or, where a component lives inside the login-gated application, from consistent reputable secondary sources. Prompts can shift mid-cycle; the source link is the record.

No published AI policy as of mid-2026, so disclose conservatively.
MIT Sloan has no formal written AI policy. Admissions leadership has publicly likened AI to a calculator or spell-check and asks only that what you submit is authentically you. The video-first application, with a single-take 90-second video and a randomly generated live question, is itself the check on authenticity.
MIT Sloan has published no AI policy on any page or application we track. · Checked Jul 18, 2026 · Full sourced reading
MIT Sloan publishes no single cost-of-attendance total; its official budget components add to roughly $134,000 for the 2026-27 academic year (single student, one year).
Federal Grad PLUS loans are gone and graduate borrowing is capped, so the two-year math matters more than it used to. Our free financing-gap calculator shows what federal loans still cover at MIT Sloan and the gap that is now yours to plan.

MIT Sloan publishes a median GMAT of 675 (middle 80%: 645-735) for its Class of 2027 (includes LGO). GMAT (either edition) or GRE required; no preference, no minimum; EA not accepted; no waiver. A published median is a snapshot of one admitted class, not a cutoff.
MIT Sloan's official budget components add to roughly $134,000 for the 2026-27 academic year (single student, one year). Most students should plan for two years plus year-two inflation; our free financing-gap calculator does that math with federal loan caps applied.
