Start Dates
We have five convenient starting dates throughout the year to fit your schedule. We want your path to an MBA to be as accessible as possible, so there are opportunities to start your degree at various points throughout the year.
Students may enter the program in fall, spring, or summer sessions.
Students will work with an academic advisor who will work with each individual to ensure satisfactory progress is being made while adhering to the degree plan.
Once you are a registered student, you will be given login information to be able to register for classes on your own. In each term, students must register for classes a minimum of one week prior to the scheduled start date of classes. This will insure time for students to obtain required books and materials and for the course instructor to adjust the course's learning activities to the size of the class.
