The Pre-MBA minor is a fast track for any undergraduate non-business major who wishes to continue their study at The University of Akron to earn an MBA. The courses serve as a foundation for the MBA program and can reduce that program by up to 18 credit hours.
The program is accredited at the highest possible level by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). The College of Business Administration is considered to be one of the best business schools by Princeton Review and ranked in the top 6 percent of all undergraduate programs by BusinessWeek.
