   Degree Requirements

In addition to completing the requirements for the BBA, students must complete requirements for the MBA degree. Loyola's standalone MBA requires 18 courses plus an internship. In the five-year combined degree program—because five MBA courses may be waived with a B or better in selected undergraduate courses—the MBA portion of the combined degree may only require 14 courses.

In addition to earning five course waivers, qualified students may substitute up to three advanced courses for MBA core courses. The breakdown of required and elective courses within the 14 courses varies based on course waivers and advanced course standing. A Graduate School of Business academic advisor will approve course waivers and substitutions upon admission to the MBA program.
