SMU Cox MBA Recommendation Questions
2024-2025 SMU Cox MBA Recommendation Questions
The SMU Cox School of Business MBA application does not require applicants to submit letters of recommendation. Instead, applicants are asked to submit the names and contact information of two people who could serve as professional references if needed during the review process. These individuals will only be contacted in the event there are questions about your background that are otherwise not answered in the application materials and only with notification. It is recommended to supply references who know you in a professional capacity, such as current or former supervisors.

Throughout my time in the Army I steadily promoted and I have had a successful Financial Advising career with notable institutions and now currently with a startup firm. Average client I manage has a liquid asset of $1.5million. I am looking to change careers as I struggle with the monotony of the job, and I am always seeking new challenges. I know post MBA there will be plenty of challenging and exciting opportunities to tackle which will hopefully help me feel more fulfillment in my professional career.
I applied to my programs via the Consortium.
I am looking to start MBA in Fall 2026, so by then I would have 4 years of work experience. I am thinking about receiving a dual-degree, but haven't looked much into the admissions process of the second degree in healthcare. Mainly, I am debating and need help deciding if Fall 2026 is the right timeline to start an MBA, and I'll be fully prepared as a candidate, or if I need gain more experience to improve my resume.
Your help is greatly appreciated !! :)
