The \u201c4 + 1\u201d Bachelor\u2019s\/MBA is a five year program, during which students will spend three years taking courses required for their chosen bachelor\u2019s degree program and in their fourth year, they will complete (along with required undergraduate program courses) 6 credits worth of graduate business (MBA) coursework. This will satisfy both undergraduate degree requirements and count toward achievement of the MBA degree. In the fifth year, students will take graduate courses required for a General MBA<\/a>, in a full-time format.<\/p>\n

Students must notify the MBA Office regarding their interest in the program and complete a form of intent to designate intent to participate in the 4 + 1 program. Upon approval, students can enroll in the MBA swing courses during the spring semester of their senior year.\u00a0 Students will then apply to Graduate Admissions as a last term senior to be officially accepted as a graduate student.\u00a0 Those who do not meet 4 + 1 program requirements or who choose not to pursue the MBA by completing the remaining courses in year five will graduate with a Bachelor\u2019s degree. Students who complete the 5-year program will possess both a Bachelor\u2019s degree in their undergraduate discipline and an MBA degree.<\/p>\n
