STUDENT  5-Year B.S./MBA Program Guidelines

 

 

  • Students will register their interest in the 5-year programs as soon as possible in their freshman, sophomore or junior years. Students should register with their department liaison (listed below), with the Assistant Dean BSOB (for SOB students only) or the Associate Dean CAS. Students must apply to and be formally admitted to the MBA program. This will normally take place in the fall of their senior year.

 

  • Students will apply to the MBA program in the fall of their senior year. Students apply to the MBA program by applying to The Graduate School (http://bsob.jcu.edu/graduatebusiness/apply.htm).  Those students admitted to the program will begin the MBA program in either the Spring of their senior year or during Summer A immediately after graduation. Students would have 15 months to complete the program under the advertised program price. Outside of that time frame, students would have to pay the regular graduate student price for classes.

 

  • Only students who graduate from JCU would be eligible for the 5-year package priced program.

 

  • Internships: Students are strongly encouraged to complete an internship in conjunction with their MBA coursework. The Career Center will help students to set up their internships. It is essential that students participate in the internship program in order to be marketable upon receiving their MBA. Each student will be strongly encouraged to work in a paid internship for approximately 20 hours per week beginning with the fall MBA classes.

 

  • Applying to the program: Students should plan on taking the GMAT in the summer after their junior year or early in the fall semester of their senior year. Students should be encouraged to study/prepare for this exam. The BSOB entrance requirements for the 5year B.S./MBA program are a GPA of 3.0 and a GMAT score of 500. Students whose GPA or GMAT scores do not meet these minimums will be considered for admission by the Associate Dean of the Boler School of Business on a case-by-case basis.
