MBA Completion Requirements

Whether you're working towards a business degree online, business diploma, or other academic endeavor, there are likely a set of pre-determined completion requirements. These will vary depending on the type of program or degree you're working toward, and will vary slightly between campuses. However, it's important to understand the completion requirements, and the impact they'll have on your work, home, and personal life, before making that academic and financial commitment.

Working toward your MBA? You may be required to complete 12 mandatory courses, two comprehensive exams, one applied project, and two theme-based weekend seminars. In addition, there may be a week-long summer school residency requirement. It's important to note that just because the bulk of your studies will be completed online, you may be required to do some traveling (depending on your geographical proximity to the school). You'll want to f actor in those added expenses of obtaining your degree including gas costs, meals, accommodations, etc.

The other thing to consider is your ability to take time from work, if necessary, to do a short-term residency. Whether you're traveling for a day long workshop, or a week long stay, you'll need to make arrangements with your employer (assuming you're working while obtaining your degree).
