The Maine Business School signs agreements with departments who have approved this program for their undergraduate students. Therefore, please check with your department to see whether they are participating in this program.

• Admissions:

Students in the five-year MBA program are eligible to apply for admission in the spring semester of their junior year, provided they have completed 75 credits toward graduation.  At the time of application, they must have a minimum GPA of 3.2, and they must maintain this GPA in order to retain eligibility to take two graduate courses as a senior.  Prior to an admissions decision, the student must take the GMAT and achieve a minimum score of 550.  (Students who do not meet these minimums may have their applications held for consideration for the normal post-baccalaureate admission process.) Except for the timing, students will follow the normal application process (GMAT, letters of recommendation, transcripts and submission of the online application form.) 

Students must sign a letter of intent with the Business School and their department before proceding with this program.

• Accepted Students:

If accepted into the five-year MBA program and thus, pre-approved for MBA admission, students are eligible to take two graduate-level courses during their senior year.  Course selection will be limited to a few options, and will be decided upon in consultation with the business school graduate program director and on the prerequisites for those courses.

After the students complete their undergraduate requirements and successfully complete one or two MBA courses, they will be officially admitted into the MBA program (prior to this they are accepted but not admitted) and can proceed with no limitations.
