[Shaleen]

The College of Business (COB) at Idaho State University offer Master of Business Administration (M.B.A) applicants from around the state and around the globe. It offers the M.B.A. program to holders of business and non-business bachelor’s degrees. Since 1978, it has been accredited by the coveted AACSB International (The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business).

Admission to the M.B.A. Program is the same and requires admission to the Graduate School as well as completion of the following steps:

1. Apply to the Graduate School. The application is available on-line. The application requires a fee of $55, which must be paid upon applying on-line. It also requires that official transcripts be sent to the Graduate School office

2. Send two letters of recommendation, a copy of your resume, and a Statement of Purpose (a page or less stating why you want to earn a M.B. A.) to the M.B.A. office via mail OR email.
