The Saturday MBA Program
Barry’s first Saturday MBA program at The Herald in southwest
Broward County was a great success! The program’s next start
date is January 14, 2006. If this is the right option for you, you
have enough time to prepare for the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) and to submit your application. And you have time to
attend one of our Information Sessions!
Convenience. The convenience of Saturday classes
and The Herald’s location right off the Sheridan exit on I-75
makes this program easily accessible, whether you live in Dade,
Broward, or Palm Beach County. Classes will be held from 8:00 AM
to 11:00 AM and from 12 noon to 3:00 PM.
Completion Time. If you apply and are accepted
into this program, you will progress through your studies with a
group of fellow students referred to as a “cohort.”
Participants, as a cohort group, will complete this 36 credit-hour
program in 23 months. This provides you with a unique opportunity
to form an enduring professional network with other students.
Tuition Discounts. The tuition, at $475.00 per credit hour for all Herald and Knight Ridder employees ($550.00 for others), is a reduced rate from our Miami Shores campus Evening MBA program ($685.00 per credit hour). This tuition structure will
be in effect for the duration of the 23-month program: no tuition
increases! (Please note: Since your tuition is already discounted,
we cannot make the Barry Merit Scholarship or the Marie Baier Scholarship
available to you.)
Questions. If you have any questions about Barry’s
Saturday MBA, you can request
more information online, schedule
a visit, or reserve
a seat at an information session. If you are ready to apply,
you can complete our convenient online
application.
