The Walton MBA

Final application deadline for The Walton MBA is fast approaching. September 15 is the date that should be circled in red on your calendar. We will accept applications after this date; however, to be in the consideration for graduate assistantships, you should plan on having your documents submitted by the deadline.

This newly redesigned program was first rolled out in January of 2007. These students just graduated this May and their annual starting salary was $75,452 with a range of $62,000 to $110,000. This first class consisted of 30 students. These students had an average GMAT of 625 and they averaged a little over three years of work experience.

The second class to start this new program began in January of this year. We admitted 32 and they had an average GMAT of 630 and 27 months of work experience. They will graduate next May and we are expecting fantastic placement stats from them too.

We are in the planning stages of the next class to begin in January of 2009. We are expecting to admit between 35 and 40 students.

Graduate assistantships will be the topic of the next post. For more information about The Walton MBA, go to: http://gsb.uark.edu/mba/fulltime_overview.asp. As always, please email me with questions.
