<p>It's pretty obvious that the solid MBA programs want legitimate work experience in their applicants. If I get into Northeastern as an undergrad, I'd go the five year track and do 2-3 six month co-ops. In their co-op policy, you basically rotate semesters between academics and your co-op job. When you're in your co-op job, you have no school and work full time. Basically what I'm asking is, would something like this constitute "legitimate working experience" on a MBA application? I want to be a liberal arts major by the way, so co-op is critical for me.</p>
