MBA 4+1 Program

MBA 4+1 Program

Thinking about starting your own business? Want to stand out in a competitive job market? As a Susquehanna student, you can select any major and go on to earn your Master of Business Administration in as little as one year — that’s an entire year less than what typical MBA programs require in the United States.

Two Paths to Earn Your MBA  

• 12-month program after graduation: If you choose the Mediterranean island nation of Cyprus for your semester-long study-abroad program, you’ll take coursework at the University of Nicosia that will concurrently count toward the completion of your MBA. After earning a degree in any major from Susquehanna, you’ll take just one more year of courses to complete your MBA in Cyprus.

• 18-month program after graduation: If you do not study abroad in Cyprus for a full semester, you can still pursue your MBA at the University of Nicosia through its 18-month program — which is still six months less than a typical MBA program.

If you graduate from Susquehanna with a 2.5 GPA or higher, you can enroll in the MBA program without taking the Graduate Management Admission Test, or GMAT.
