MBA Ready - Introduction

Executive MBA students come from diverse academic and experiential backgrounds. A typical class includes students who have studied business, economics, law, engineering, sciences, medicine, literature, and other fields. Further, students have varied functional and managerial experience based on their professional responsibilities. And some students have completed college only a few years ago, while others have been out of college 20 years or more.

Executive MBA students have found that pre-program academic preparation contributes significantly to their success as they study for the MBA degree. The goal of MBA Ready is to assist you with customizing your preparation.
