Q - Does completing an undergraduate business major give me an advantage in applying for my MBA?
A - Not necessarily. The most selective MBA programs are looking for the most qualified students. Previous education, test scores, and work experience are all important. Traditionally, schools of business administration do not offer undergraduate degrees, so MBA programs have not given priority to students with this preparation. Generally, graduate business schools, like all graduate programs, prefer students with strong, broad academic records that demonstrate a solid background in the basic academic skills which are necessary for success.
