Timeline
What the timeline looks like
There are no term dates, so the timeline is yours to set. For illustration, here is how long 8 courses take at three different paces.
| Your pace | You finish in about |
|---|---|
| One course every 4 weeks | 7 months |
| One course every 8 weeks | 15 months |
| One course every 12 weeks | 22 months |
Illustrative only — your pace may differ; the typical completion window is 1–2 years typical. There is no penalty for finishing faster or taking longer.
Fit check
Who the MBA is not for
A program that is honest about its limits is easier to trust. If any of these describe your situation, check first — or choose a different path.
You want a research degree
There is no thesis or dissertation requirement — assessment is by multiple-choice quiz. If you want supervised research, choose a research-based program.
You plan to transfer credits later
ACLAS makes no promises about credit transfer to other universities. If a future degree elsewhere is the goal, ask that university first.
