Part-time MBA

For those of you who work full-time and are interested in getting an MBA, the Walton College has the perfect opportunity for you. Our part-time MBA, aka Managerial MBA (MMBA), was specifically designed for busy professionals with lives. These students attend class one Saturday each month and take 6 hours each semester for 6 semesters. In between these face-to-face meetings, students work online. To see the class schedule for 2009-2010, go to: http://gsb.uark.edu/751.asp.

It's important to point out that our students in this part-time MBA are still getting an MBA. Their degree and transcripts look no different from those of our full-time MBA students.

The "official" application deadline was April 1. However, we will accept applications through the summer. Orientation is August 13-16 and it is mandatory. The admissions committee met yesterday and admitted 31 students into the MMBA. Our goal is 55-60 so we still have a spot for you.

The admissions committee pays close attention to your GMAT score and work experience.

Now is the perfect time to get your MBA.

The number of completed apps last year at this time was 48 while the number this year was 39. For both years, we offered admission to 31 after this first meeting. We usually get around 100 apps each year for part-time and we have enrolled 58 the last two years. Apps are accepted through July.
