The Program

The 4 + 1 B.A./B.S./M.B.A. Program is designed to allow an undergraduate student to continue study for an additional year upon completion of the undergraduate degree and receive the Master of Business Administration degree. The program is available to all undergraduate students, and those who are interested in the program should apply for admission during the fall semester of their junior undergraduate year. Admission is granted to those students who meet established M.B.A. graduate admissions criteria.

Criteria needed to apply to the program include an application form, application fee, official transcript of undergraduate courses taken to date, submission of GMAT score, two letters of recommendation, and a Statement of Objectives from the student for pursuing the M.B.A. degree. Upon receipt of the application materials, the M.B.A. graduate admissions committee will review the student’s application. The finding of the admissions committee is communicated to the applicant during the spring semester of the junior year. Upon acceptance, a series of undergraduate prerequisite courses must be satisfied before the student enrolls in graduate business courses. The master of business administration degree requires the completion of 12 graduate courses. Seven of the courses are core courses and the remaining five courses are elective courses.
