Abstract: Each year graduate business admissions committees must carefully evaluate prospective students. Committees must judge the performance of applicants with respect to a wide range of quantitative and qualitative criteria in order to select the best students. The overall process is complex and time consuming. In this paper, we construct an easy-to-use, replicable model that can aid such admissions committees in the selection process.
