Criteria, Processes, Factors, and Procedures Used in Admissions
(Data appear as originally submitted by this school)
Full-time traditional two-year and full-time accelerated programs: We carefully evaluate all components of applications. We seek candidates with strong potential for academic and professional success and who are highly motivated, innovative, self-directed and possess a strong work ethic. Personal competencies such as communication, interpersonal, teamwork and leadership skills are among other key considerations. Post-undergraduate experience is not required.
Executive program: N/A
Part-time program: There are no academic departments and no majors. Elective courses are required to fulfill depth and breadth requirements. Instead of 2 semesters, students take 4 mini-semesters per academic year. In a typical mini-semester, students take 4 or 5 courses affording students exposure to topics and professors. Students take at least 32 mini courses in the program, half of which are electives.
Part-time distance learning program: The admissions and graduation requirements for the FlexMode program are identical to those of the two-year, Full-Time MBA program except for the length of study and requirement for a partnership with corporations that provide access to video conferencing facilities for interactive classes for on-site study.
