Do I necessarily need a bachelors to get a MBA in The USA?
Do I necessarily need a bachelors to get a MBA in The USA?
I live in brazil and have just graduated High School. I want to start going to college or university here in brazil but after I want to get an MBA in the USA, im also american so i wont be a international student. Here in brazil we have 4 year bachelors degree but there are also shorter undergraduate degrees that last 2 to 3 years, they arent bachelors degree though. To get an MBA in brazil you dont need a bachelors. What would these shorter college degrees be considered in america? Can i get a MBA without a bachelors in america? is tere a set rule for all universities/colleges? or does it depend... any where i can find this info? thanks!

No.....In order to be accepted to any MBA programm you have to have Bachelors degree ...go to any university web page and they have a lot of information for new students over there...

Absolutely need the BA first. Set rules for everything. Send for information from the school you plan to attend. It may be different from school to school.

You need to be VERY careful here. You MUST have a bachelors or the equivalent to enter ANY masters program, including business administration. Anything less than a four year degree is not considered equivalent to a bachelors. And even a degree that DOES take four years may not qualify. You need to find all this out BEFORE you spend 2-4 years of your life in school, then discover few or none of the credits transfer. The only way to do that is to talk to the Brazilian university AND the American MBA university of your choice. Depending on the nature of these shorter degrees, they would either be the equivalent of an associates degree, or nothing at all.
