MBA Degree Requirements:
Changes to the degree and what that means for MBA students.
Starting Fall 2015, there are now 2 sets of degree requirements for MBA students, which are based on when a student matriculated (entered) into the MBA program.
- If you entered the program before Fall 2015, then you are required to complete 8 electives.
- If you entered the program starting Fall 2015 or after, then you are required to complete 6 electives.
Requirements for each program can be found on the Student Resource page, under Course Planning Guides. You can also view them below:

This is a change to the MBA program only, that takes effect for matriculated students starting Fall 2015. It is a University policy that program changes can only take effect for the student population that enters during the first semester the change is approved. This means that students already entered into the program are not eligible for the new requirements, and must complete the requirements for the degree that were in effect at the time that they matriculated into the program.
This has been discussed at the University and Registrar’s levels already, and the policy stands as stated above.
