• Program and Contact Information

  Our program has rapidly grown since its inception for 3 key reasons:

  • Quality:  When it comes to MBA programs, nothing is more important than the return students get for their tuition investment. Our commitment here at 91¶ÌÊÓƵ has always been to provide the highest quality MBA education available anywhere in the United States for an extremely competitive price, and we are succeeding…
  • Convenience:  Student circumstances vary significantly.  Some are early in their careers while others are nearing the end.  Some students like to learn in face-to-face classrooms while others prefer to learn virtually online.  We have designed our convenient and flexible “non-cohort” programs with students’ needs in mind.
  • Connection:  Many other MBA programs are characterized by large class sizes, high tuition, and under-qualified graduate assistant instructors.  Not at Weber State!  Our program is designed for the welfare of our students!
