The Evening MBA Program
Miami-Dade South
Great news for our interested MBA students in Miami-Dade, Broward and Monroe counties! Our AACSB International accredited Evening MBA program is scheduled to begin again in Miami-Dade south at Assurant Solutions, Miami, located at 11222 Quail Roost Drive, Miami, FL 33157 (just off the Florid Turnpike-South Eureka Drive/Quail Roost Drive exit), in January 2009. This gives applicants sufficient time to prepare for the GMAT and to submit their applications. Or, if the applicant has extensive managerial experience they can complete the Admission Requirements’ portfolio detailing extensive managerial experience in order to be waived, upon review, from the GMAT.
For the Evening MBA at Assurant there is an application deadline of Monday, November 24, 2008. Also, please note that applicants for the Evening MBA at Assurant must either be U.S. citizens or residents or international applicants whose visas allow them to enroll as part-time (six credits per semester) students.
Participants will progress through their studies as one cohesive group referred to as a “cohort.” In a cohort group, participants will complete the 36 credit hour, 23-month program together. This provides a unique opportunity to form a functional and enduring professional network among participants, as well as strong mutual support for the future.
Classes will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:00 – 9:00 PM. Please see the projected course schedule for each semester, commencing with the spring of 2009, at the end of this article.
The tuition, at $655 per credit hour for all Assurant Solutions’ employees ($715 for others), is a reduced rate from our on-campus MBA program's rate ($815 per credit hour). This tuition structure will be in effect for the duration of the 23-month program. Please note that the Barry University Merit Scholarship is not available to students at the Evening MBA at Assurant due to its discounted tuition structure.
For those students whose undergraduate degree is not in business, additional non-credit workshops may be required. These workshops will be scheduled conveniently at our Miami Shores campus throughout the 23-month program. For additional information about these workshops please go to: www.barry.edu/mba/admissions/preRequisites.htm
