FAQs

How long will it take me to get my MBA?

Undergraduate business majors qualify for our 30 credit Advanced Standing track which can be completed in 12 months, full time. Non-Business undergraduate majors are eligible for the traditional 42 credit track which can be completed in 18 months, full time.

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 (management, marketing, data analytics, etc.)?

Yes. Students complete three electives across a variety of topics. Those concentrating their elective choices within a specific business discipline can create an area of specialization. Specializations are dependent on course offerings which may change based on market demand.

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 and must be evaluated and approved by the MBA Program Director.
