The College of Business offers a fast-track MBA program for the undergraduate students whose majors are outside business. The program combines a four-year undergraduate degree and a two-year M.B.A. into a five-year program.

Students are not expected to come to the program with any previous business knowledge. Since there are no business background requirements, all of the undergraduates who enroll in the program are extremely comfortable with the learning material and enjoy the hands-on business experience they are getting. All students take an intensive, 8-week program in the summer after their junior year, which allows them to take MBA courses in their senior year.

Students 'save' 15 undergraduate credits (one semester) by substituting MBA credits for general electives. (The electives cannot be DEC or major requirements):

Total MBA credits: 60

Total Undergraduate Credits: 105

The BA/BS+MBA is geared for high-achieving students. They must have leadership skills and at least a 3.1 GPA. They need to be mature, motivated and reliable individuals.
