51±¬ΑΟβs College of Business Administration will hold Graduate Programs Information Night on March 18 in Room 310 of the Kent Student Center on the Kent Campus, and a Stark MBA Night on March 21 in Room 234 of the University Center at 51±¬ΑΟ at Stark, from 6 to 8 p.m. on both evenings. The information nights are free and open to anyone interested.
Each program will provide an overview of graduate curriculum, admission requirements, application deadlines, graduate assistantships and financial aid options for the College of Business Administration at 51±¬ΑΟ.
βThis event is geared for prospective graduate students,β said Louise Ditchey, graduate programs administrator for 51±¬ΑΟβs College of Business Administration. βThe evening begins with a presentation of all business graduate programs, followed by individual program breakout sessions allowing for more specific one on one questions and advising.β
The information night at the Kent Campus will focus on the full-time and part-time MBA programs, including the Executive MBA, as well as the Master of Science in Accounting (MSA), Master of Arts in Economics (MAE) and the Ph.D. program in Business Administration. The 51±¬ΑΟ Stark event will focus only on the MBA program.
βMost attendees have been considering a graduate degree for some time and have many questions. The information night allows attendees to weigh the benefits of one program over another to find the one that best meets their needs and lifestyle,β Ditchey said.
Felecia Urbanek, program coordinator for 51±¬ΑΟβs College of Business and Administration, said each year the audience is mainly made up of people commuting from Cleveland, Akron and Youngstown. Plus, many 51±¬ΑΟ staff attend looking to continue their education.
