The Saturday MBA Program

Broward

Great news for our interested MBA students in Broward and Palm Beach counties! Our AACSB International accredited Saturday MBA program is scheduled to begin in Broward County at The Herald building located at 2010 NW 150th Avenue, Pembroke Pines, FL 33028 (on I-75 just off of the Sheridan East exit) on August 30, 2008.  This gives applicants sufficient time to prepare for the GMAT (or complete the Admission Requirements’ portfolio detailing extensive managerial experience in order to be waived, upon review, from the GMAT) and to submit their applications.  

For the Broward Saturday MBA there is an application deadline of July 1, 2008.  Also, please note that applicants for the Saturday MBA 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 Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM with a one-hour lunch break.  Please see the projected course schedule for each semester, commencing with the fall of 2008, at the end of this article. 

The tuition, at $580 per credit hour for all Herald and Knight Rider employees ($625 for others), is a reduced rate from our on-campus MBA program's rate ($765 per credit our).  This tuition structure will be in effect for the duration of the 23-month program.  Please note that the Barry University Merit Scholarship and the Marie Baier Scholarship are not available to students at The Herald's MBA due to its reduced tuition structure.

For those students whose undergraduate degree is not in business, additional non-credit workshops will 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

Barry University's Andreas School of Business has a proud tradition of providing its graduate students with the challenge and opportunities afforded by an academic environment that includes professors who have a strong background in the practical aspects of business and are skilled both in teaching and research. 

For additional information, please contact Jose Poza at 305-899-3535/1-800-289-1111 X3535 or jpoza@mail.barry.edu at your convenience.  We look forward to hearing from you and hope that Barry University will play an integral role in helping you achieve your personal and professional goals.
