<p>Wharton has a submatriculation program in which you get an MBA and a bachelor’s in 5 years. This program is incredibly difficult to get into, so in effect, what most of these members are saying about having to work for 3-5 years is correct.</p>
<p>However, the added value of an MBA over an undergraduate business school is dropping - it’s only worth going back to school if you want to “redirect” your career. I would advise your daughter to try to go to Haas if she really wants to try business.</p>
<p>Also, while some firms do subsidize or pay for MBA education, they will make you sign a contract in which you are obligated to return to the firm after you get the MBA degree. This is not a wise move in most situations. The big advantages of getting an MBA are a) the professional network you establish and b) the chance to “redirect” your career. Both of these are taken away if you sign to go back</p>
