<p>Can someone tell me generally about it? I know there is a 3.5 cumulative requirement, but how competitive is the program? Is it an apply and get in or hotly contested? All other details would be appreciated. Thanks!</p>
<p>And thats the BBA Economics and MPA program</p>
<p>It’s not called the BBA Economics/MPA program. That’s a contradiction because Economics isn’t a BBA degree.
This website explains everything about getting in.

I’m also interested in this or the BBA/MPA 5 year approach. PM me! I can give you the admissions lady’s information. What are your stats, etc?</p>
<p>Ok whatever you get the idea lol…</p>
<p>Anyone have any comments of the competitiveness etc?</p>
<p>MPA is quiet difficult to get into @ McCombs or thats at least what I heard around here & I was also told that if you didn’t took both accounting 311 & 312 at McCombs, you’re not very competitive. That said, i know many ppl who I know aren’t very smarter than me in class who are in MPA so its not too daunting either. & I am in no way close to a genius in academics.</p>
<p>The lady told me that if you can transfer into McCombs and have all the required courses, you’re basically into the program.</p>
<p>oh so you need to be in mccombs to do the program? i thought you ahd to be an econ student</p>

<p>There are two types of Integrated-MPA: One for Accounting students and a second for Economics students.</p>
