Admission and Academic Calendar

This page provides important information regarding application deadlines, admission timelines, start terms, and academic calendar structures for the Master of Business Administration (MBA) and Master of Trust and Wealth Management (MTWM) programs. Prospective students are encouraged to review this information carefully when planning their application and intended start term.

 

Admission Calendar

Below you will find information on upcoming start dates and preferred application deadlines for each of our graduate programs. Applicants are encouraged to review related admissions resources, including admission criteria, the application process, and upcoming admissions events, to ensure they are prepared for a timely and successful application.

Rolling Admission & Application Deadlines

The MBA program operates on a rolling admission schedule, meaning applications are reviewed by the Admissions Committee as they are completed. Completed applications are accepted until five business days prior to the start date of the term for which you are applying. International applicants must apply at least six weeks before the intended start date to allow for additional processing.

If an application is not complete by the start date of the selected term, it will be rolled forward to the next available term within the same BusinessCAS application cycle. Applicants who reach the end of an application cycle will need to submit a new application for the following BusinessCAS application cycle.

MBA Start Terms

Students may begin the MBA program during any of six start terms throughout the year: August, October, January, March, April/May, and June. While many students choose to begin in the traditional August or January terms, multiple entry points allow flexibility for working professionals. International students may begin the MBA program during the Fall I (August) term only.

Application Fee Waiver (Preferred Deadline)

Applicants who apply by the Preferred Application Deadline may request a waiver of the application processing fee (international application fees are not waived). Fee waiver requests must be submitted before the application is officially submitted, as application fees cannot be refunded once paid.

To request an application fee waiver coupon code, applicants should email mba@campbell.edu with a screenshot showing the “Submit Application tab” showing the application is complete (full green line and check mark) and their name and CAS ID in the upper right hand corner.
