Coronavirus (COVID-19) Updates for Prospective MBA Students Benedict College is aware of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on testing facilities. Consequently, we are waiving the GMAT/GRE requirement for students applying for Fall 2021 admission into our MBA program.

The MBA Program at Benedict College is designed to meet the needs of persons who are interested in furthering their existing career path or who would like to take their career path in a different direction. Candidates for the degree will be expected to complete a minimum of 36 semester credit hours. Twenty-four (24) of the 36 hours will constitute an MBA Core. The MBA Core is required of all candidates, along with a minimum of 12 hours in the concentration.

The MBA program affords one (1) concentration to students:

General Business

The General Business concentration is designed to prepare candidates to function in a dynamic business environment. Graduates are expected to be able to think critically, communicate effectively, and have the tools to solve complex problems. Additionally, they are expected to possess technical skills, analytical skills, business savvy, and have a broad understanding of the core business functions. Candidates in General Business will be exposed to courses in accounting, economics, management, finances, and marketing.

Mandatory 18 Hours Of Prerequisite Courses Up to 18 hours of prerequisite courses in business may be required for candidates without an undergraduate degree in business or who lack a requisite level of business knowledge. A regular matriculating full-time student should be able to complete the degree in about one year of serious study. Students needing prerequisites and part-time enrollees will likely require more than one year to complete the degree.
