Admissions
The Eller Evening MBA accepts students from a broad range of professional backgrounds: corporate managers, entrepreneurs, physicians, engineers, public sector employees, people working in nonprofit organizations and more.
These students have three or more years of professional experience and a desire to move their career forward with the knowledge and polish they develop through the pursuit of an MBA.
Applicants complete an online application form and two essays while procuring one letter of recommendation. They also pay an application fee ($90). The Admissions Committee will review completed application packets and identify viable candidates for an interview— via zoom. The Admissions Process includes details.
We admit students on a rolling basis following a review of application materials and an interview. Typically, a final decision is issued a month after the application is complete and all supporting materials have been received. If accepted, you will be given a time frame in which to make your decision and submit a non-refundable $500 enrollment fee to confirm your spot in the class.
Costs
Applicants are eligible to apply for federal funding through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Applicants can apply online and work with the University of Arizona Student Financial Aid Office for federal financial aid.
You may pay tuition in full or in six payments of $9,000 spread throughout the program's time frame.
Features & Benefits
The degree you earn will be a fully accredited Master of Business Administration. However, the curriculum structure is different from the regular Eller MBA and most MBA programs. Also, because this is an accelerated program, some of the more basic elements of MBA knowledge are covered at a quicker pace.
For most of the program, classes meet once weekly, from 4-10 p.m. with a meal break. The program begins with a three-day Mandatory launch. The program lasts 22 months.
- Our curriculum is dynamic and maximizes return on investment for working professionals

Students in the evening MBA program typically spend 15-20 hours per week on coursework.
The curriculum for the evening MBA program is designed to be rigorous and comprehensive, similar to the full-time program. However, it is structured to accommodate working professionals with part-time schedules.
