Accelerated MBA

Washington DC
Part-time program

The program is offered in a cohort format during the first year, which covers the majority of the core MBA curriculum. Those cohort courses are offered at a full-time credit load (nine credits in fall and spring, six credits in summer). The courses, offered in five-week format, run back-to-back, and they are held on Wednesday evenings and Saturdays (usually 9:30 a.m. – 3:30 p.m.). Starting their second year, students may shift into a part-time format (if they wish) to complete their electives in 14-week format. Students will have one final cohort course in the fall of their second year (MBAD 6288), and they have to take one final core course when convenient.

DurationStudents may choose between two years of full-time study or one year of full-time study and two years of part-time study.
