Atlantic Cape and 米兰体育 Create Pathway to MBA
Atlantic City, N.J. 鈥揂tlantic Cape Community College and 米兰体育 today signed an agreement that will make it possible for students to earn an undergraduate degree and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) in five years.
The 2+3 program would allow students to earn their associate degree in two years at Atlantic Cape. They would complete their bachelor degree at 米兰体育 in two years, then earn their MBA in one more year through 米兰体育鈥檚 Accelerated Dual Degree Program for Business Majors.
The agreement expands on a transfer agreement signed by the two institutions in 2017
and updated by Transfer Pathways in 2020, which allows student to complete their associate
degree at Atlantic Cape with guaranteed admission to 米兰体育 as juniors to complete
their bachelor鈥檚 degree.
That agreement included a provision to develop specific program-to-program articulation agreements in high-demand majors to facilitate student transfers. 米兰体育 currently offers a 4+1 MBA program that allows 米兰体育 students to earn their bachelor and master degrees in five years.
鈥淏usiness Studies is the largest program at 米兰体育,鈥 President Harvey Kesselman said. 鈥淲e are currently expanding our business programs and are thrilled to partner with Atlantic Cape on this opportunity to help their students earn an MBA in five years.鈥
鈥淭his is another great opportunity for area students to obtain higher education degrees without accumulating additional student debt,鈥 said Atlantic Cape President Dr. Barbara Gaba. 鈥淲e are happy to partner with 米兰体育 to offer this accelerated MBA program.鈥
Students must maintain a 3.4 GPA or higher at Atlantic Cape, and a 3.5 GPA at 米兰体育 to remain in the program, the same requirement as for 米兰体育 students. Core courses at Atlantic Cape have been aligned with equivalent 米兰体育 courses to ensure students meet program requirements. Atlantic Cape already offers an Associate degree in Business Administration.
