• Level of professionalism should be comparable to any corporate environment:- Active class/group participation- Effective, respectful communications with faculty, staff and
colleagues – regardless of circumstances- Regular class attendance- Prompt arrivals- Prompt submission of quality deliverables (i.e.,
assignments)- Professional courtesies to faculty and colleagues- Minimal use of cell phones & pagers

Comparison between BS/MBA and “regular” MBA Program
• BS/MBA students generally take 2 MBA courses while still undergraduates; regular MBA students do not.
• BS/MBA students have strict application deadline & the program admits twice per year; regular MBA students can apply & enroll in any of the four quarters.
• All students eligible for same MBA course waivers (coursework taken during the last 7 years can be used to calculate waivers)
• Most other aspects are the same; all other aspects being equal, someone in the traditional MBA program might take approximately one quarter longer to complete the program than someone in the formal BS/MBA program
