The online Master of Business Administration is a competitive program from the #1 private university in upward mobility. Students who succeed in our program are dedicated and self-motivated.
While we require a completed undergraduate degree to apply to our program, we do not require any prerequisites. We believe that professionals find their niche in the business world in very different ways, so an undergraduate degree in any field is acceptable to apply.
No application fee is required. We want professionals applying to our program to focus solely on putting their best foot forward in their application and submission packet. Because of this, we don’t require an application fee to submit.
These general standards apply to all students—domestic and international. There are some additional requirements that apply to international applicants.
