We take business personally.

The Vanderbilt MBA is designed for early career professionals who want to accelerate their career or switch career paths entirely.

At Vanderbilt we're looking for students who are inquisitive, self-aware, adaptable, and driven. We are a close-knit and collaborative community and our holistic approach to the admissions process ensures that we take the time to get to know you. Most students in our program have more than 2 years of work experience, with the majority of students having an average of 4-6 years of full time post-baccalaureate experience. While we have found that several years of work experience really makes a difference in both classroom learning experience and career opportunities upon graduation, we recognize each candidate is unique and evaluate each application thoughtfully.
