<p>3+2 program with a bachelors degree and an MBA? Otherwise I'm gonna have to take Stanford off my list :(</p>
<p>Thanks in advance</p>
<p>I’d be surprised if they did. Most highly ranked MBA programs require work experience.</p>
<p>Most MBA programs do. However, there is a surprising amount of schools that offer 3+2 programs…</p>
<p>No, but you can take classes at the b-school. Many classes are open to undergrads.</p>
<p>You COULD do a co-term in something like a master’s in MS&E. You won’t exactly have “MBA” on your resume but the people who matter (employers) know that you will have advanced business skills.</p>
<p>Thanks phantasmagoric</p>
<p>Bluebubbles - that is actually interesting. The dummy in me though wants to know what a co-term is! :)</p>
<p>“Coterm” is short for “coterminal,” which is a degree program that allows you to get your master’s and bachelor’s at the same time. You apply for it near the end of your undergrad years, and you can start taking classes that count toward your master’s then. It usually takes an additional year. When you graduate, you have a master’s and a bachelor’s. Most departments, I think, offer a coterm degree. MS&E (management science and engineering, not to be confused with MSE, or materials science) is a very common one. MS&E is also Stanford’s version of an undergrad business major (all the business-y type students major in it), and has excellent job prospects/salaries. I definitely recommend looking into it.</p>

<p>Yep, you can apply for an MS&E coterm. </p>

<p>Hmm…this could be useful…<em>note to self</em></p>
<p>Major thanks to both of you. How hard is it to be accepted for the coterm? Do most kids get it or is it extremely competitive?</p>
<p>Looks like I’ve got some research to do!</p>
<p>Oxford and Cambridge and most UK schools give a bachelor’s and a Master’s degree in 4 years.</p>
<p>The competitiveness depends on the program, I think, but as far as I’ve seen, the programs are not extremely competitive. You have to apply, but it shouldn’t be terribly hard.</p>
<p>All I know is that a 3.5 is the general cutoff GPA so you’ve got to be pretty good to be considered.</p>
