Are prerequisite courses keeping you from pursuing an MBA?

A Master of Business Administration (MBA) is a coveted credential that may play a significant role in a graduate’s career and personal success. However, unless you earn a four-year business degree from an accredited college, you will likely be required to complete eight or more prerequisite courses prior to being accepted by an MBA program.


MBA Boot Camp graduate Dr. Laura Waters

The Breech School of Business at Drury University created an innovative solution for qualified applicants to complete all of the required prerequisites in only five weeks. Drury’s MBA boot camp starts in July and ends in August a few weeks before the fall semester begins. Rather than attending undergraduate classes for multiple semesters before taking MBA classes, Drury’s Boot Camp graduates move directly into graduate courses fresh from the five-week Boot Camp.


Drury’s boot camp curriculum satisfies the following MBA prerequisite course requirements:

1. Financial Accounting

2. Managerial Accounting

3. Microeconomics

4. Macroeconomics

5. Marketing

6. Management or Organizational Behavior

7 Corporate Finance

8. Statistics

Normally, a student enrolled full-time would need to take two semesters of undergraduate classes to complete this amount of coursework.

If you dream about earning an MBA but made the decision not to pursue it due to the long list of prerequisites, I encourage you to consider Drury’s MBA Boot Camp. It is an extraordinary opportunity to chase your dream.
