Having a different integrated sequence of required courses, the FEMBA Track provides unspecified - and possibly interdisciplinary - elective courses that can be tailored to the specific professional needs of different groups of students. This program track is designed for groups of working business executives who as student cohorts will complete courses on a customized timetable and usually at special locations.  The College will consider the particular needs of each group of students in selecting the specialized courses.

Admission to the Program

Applicants are admitted based on a comprehensive review of their work experience, an acceptable bachelor degree, GMAT or GRE scores, letters of recommendation, and an interview.  The work requirement will generally be three to five years of significant experience.  Applicants who document 5 years of significant work experience in a managerial or professional role may request a waiver of the GMAT or GRE requirement.
