« FAQS
A Carlson MBA provides academic grounding, hands-on experience, and global connections that can translate into new opportunities and long-term career growth.
Most Full-Time MBA students receive loans, even if they qualify for other types of financial aid. The University of Minnesota offers many need- and non-need-based loan programs, administered through the Office of Student Finance. To be considered for loan programs, you must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You can submit applications as early as January, but only after you file income taxes. We encourage you to use the application online. If you have questions about loan programs, contact the Carlson MBA financial aid representative (612-626-0750).
Costs are for the 2009-2010 year over 12 months. For full details of tuition costs, please visit the tuition section of the One Stop Website. Financial aid is calculated only on expenses incurred in fall and spring semesters.
A $500 tuition deposit is required to confirm your intention to enroll in the MBA program and is applied toward the first academic term.
