FAQs
How long will it take me to get my MBA?
Students with an undergraduate business degree are automatically granted “Advanced Standing” and can complete the program in as little as 12 months (for a total of 30 credits). Non-business undergraduate majors complete 12 credits of business foundational courses and can complete the program in as little as 18 months (42 credits total).
Can I take courses at my own pace?
Yes. Enrollees choose the pace and create a work-life balance that suits their personal and professional needs.
When and how often do classes meet?
Classes meet weekly during the evenings, typically on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Class modality varies between online (i.e., fully asynchronous learning) and hybrid (i.e., a mix of synchronous and asynchronous learning). Foundational courses are only taught online.
Can I concentrate on a particular area (project management, marketing, data analytics, etc.)?
Do you accept transfer credits from other schools?
Yes. Graduate courses that are deemed as equivalent to one or more courses offered in the program can be transferred. The number of transfer credits is limited. Also, undergraduate business majors may be eligible for “Advanced Standing”, allowing them to waive 12-credits of foundational coursework.
