How many business schools can I send my GMAT score to for free?
You can send your official GMAT score to up to five business schools free of charge, but only within 48 hours of the score becoming available on your account. After this window closes, you will need to pay for extra score reports to additional schools.
Once your official GMAT score is ready, you get a short but useful window to send it to your shortlisted business schools without paying anything extra.
Free GMAT Score Sending Rules
| Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Free Score Reports | Up to 5 business schools |
| Free Sending Window | Within 48 hours of official score release |

How the Process Actually Works
You log into your mba.com account, open the score sending section, search for your target universities or programs, and confirm the request. The whole process is online and generally takes only a few minutes to complete once you know your shortlist.
My Advice
Finalise your list of target business schools before your GMAT results are released, so you are ready to use all five free reports within that 48 hour window instead of paying extra later for reports you could have sent for free.
