Day-Time MBA Program Cost

Tuition

Tuition is approximately $45,600 for the 48-unit program. Tuition includes all textbooks and instructional materials, on-campus parking or bus pass, meals for days when students are on-campus, and the cost of the international trip. Students are responsible for the roundtrip airfare from LA to the country we are visiting as well as transportation costs to and from the airports.

If you have an undergraduate degree from an AACSB-accredited Business school in the last three years and you maintained a B average, you may be eligible to waive up to 12 units of the 500-level foundational business courses. This would reduce tuition to as low as $34,200.

Self-Support/CPACE Program

Please note that as a Self-Support/CPACE program, the Cal Vet Fee Waiver and the State University Grant cannot be used for master's-level graduate programs or any courses through CPACE, including Winter Sessions and May Intersession.
