Program Costs
"An Exceptional Value in U.S. Graduate Business Education."
For qualified students, the total cost for an international MBA at the CLU Graduate Program in Business is about $42,000 (US), including tuition, program materials, housing, professional seminars, special events, and more. The only extra costs to students are for textbooks, groceries, entertainment, and other personal expenses (e.g., laundry, etc.). To issue a student visa, the U.S. government requires certification of $48,000 in available funds. This is less than the price of tuition alone for many similar programs in the US. It is easy to understand why an MBA from CLU has been acknowledged as "An Exceptional Value in Graduate Business Education."
Graduate housing is available in shared facilities a few minutes walk from campus. The Graduate residential facilities offer private bedrooms, full kitchens (range/oven, microwave, full-sized refrigerator, etc.), climate control, Internet access through wireless DSL, and cable television. Students have access to a swimming pool and a recreation center; all of this is included in the price of the program.
TERM OF STUDY
The international MBA program traditionally begins in August and concludes 12 months later with a special commencement ceremony and keynote address by a distinguished speaker. Students may apply for other terms of entry (e.g., mid November, late February, late May), and degree completion within 12 months is still possible.
Regardless of the term of entry, highly-motivated students can complete their MBA in 12 months, though some students choose to take longer to obtain their degree (15,18 or 24 months).
