Let's Talk MBA and MMBA

We are still accepting applications to the part-time MBA program. This program starts this fall with a mandatory Orientation August 5-8. Applications will be accepted through July 31. The next admissions committee will meet the week of June 28th. Application requirements can be found at http://gsb.uark.edu/admissions.asp.

Final deadline for the full-time MBA is September 15. All funding for the class to begin in January 2011 has been awarded. If you are interested in the Walton MBA and need funding, apply by April 1, 2011 for the class that will begin in January 2012. I cannot believe I am talking about 2012 already.

Today Regena and I worked on our annual report. We were crunching application numbers for this fiscal year. I'll be sure to post the final results but so far, we have seen a very nice increase over last year's numbers.

I will be out of the office for the rest of the week. Tomorrow is my 19th wedding anniversary. I know, I know, I can't possibly be that old. Unfortunately, I am. Wednesday through Saturday, Deb and I are attending the GMAC Annual Industry Conference in San Diego. It's a tough job but someone has to do it.

Before I know it, it'll be fall and I'll be hitting the road, recruiting. Keep a close eye on our website - http://gsb.uark.edu/ for my travel schedule.

We are hosting an MBA Open House on Friday, July 9 at 5:30 in 403 Willard J. Walker Hall. This is an excellent opportunity to learn more about the full and part-time MBA programs, meet the Director, and visit Walker Hall.
