Admissions Requirements:
Entry requirements and admission dates vary by program. Overall, the Office of Admissions brings the experience of more than 50 years to bear upon evaluating your application. Recognizing that no two applications, or applicants, are alike, the Office of Admissions uses a variety of criteria to judge if what we offer in our MBA program matches your needs, goals and requirements. We carefully consider your work experience, previous academic record, test scores, extracurricular interests, international experiences, letters of recommendation, personal essays and more. We then decide if Thunderbird is right for you. And once you're admitted, we ensure that your transition to Thunderbird is as smooth as we can make it.

Tuition:
Fees vary by location, type and length of program, period of enrollment. Contact T-Bird for specific information on tuition fees.

Scholarships:
More than 68 percent of all Thunderbird students regularly receive some form of financial aid-loans and/or awards-to complement their own resources. Remember, different programs require different financial aid strategies. No matter what you're interested in-our Full-Time MBA program or one of our many Executive MBA programs-if financial resources are keeping you from being part of the world's first, and best, school of international business management, contact us. We'll do our best to help you design a financial solution that meets your specific needs.

Interactive Learning Environment:
Whether in small discussion groups or in class, active involvement is demanded of students in our MBA programs, allowing them to learn not only from the faculty, but also from each other. Students interact in a multilingual, multinational setting. Distinct work experiences and cultural makeup of the class add to the diversity of the learning environment. Sharing ideas and real-world business experience, along with the exchange of industry knowledge, provides for lively debates. The environment promotes interactive learning, allowing participants to take advantage of each other's expertise and maximize the productivity of their study time. Students also recognize an immediate return where new knowledge and skills obtained can be applied in both jobs and careers.
