In response, the Educational Testing Service (ETS), owner and administrator of the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) test, is closing GRE test centers and suspending GRE testing in affected locations.
As of April 2nd 2020, ETS has made an online version of the GRE test available to business school candidates worldwide, with the exception of Mainland China and Iran. However, online GRE test-takers must have computer equipment and an environment that meets the requirements for the test.
Some candidates may not have the capability to take the GRE test from home, or may simply prefer to take the test in a test center.

The GRE is an alternative to the GMAT admission test. While the GMAT is more specific to business schools, the GRE can be used to get into a variety of graduate programs.
GMAT testing has also been impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.
The Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC), owner and administrator of the GMAT, has also launched the GMAT Online Exam to help candidates apply to business school this year.
