The MBA program is semester-based with two eight-week terms in each semester. Summer semester is one eight-week term. All but two classes in the program are two credits and eight weeks in duration; the introductory accounting class and the capstone course, Strategic Management, are four credits and 16 weeks in length. The MBA requires a total of 40 credits. The course work is arranged in lock-step, meaning each of the earlier courses lays the foundation for the later ones.

The online program can be completed in as few as 21 months or may be flexed out over three to five years. Examples of common schedules are included at right. Our advising team can help you develop a schedule to fit your needs.
