If you choose the self-study route, you may complete the degree at a pace that best suits your needs and circumstances. Most self-study students sit three examinations per year, spread over two exam intakes. This means it would take an average of three years to complete the MBA programme or even less if you have exemptions. You have a maximum of seven years to complete the programme from the time of taking your first exam.
"Back in 2001, after six months of intensive research, I selected EBS MBA as the most reputable, flexible and comprehensive program available. At that time I’ve given myself two years to finish it; to my surprise, I got so engaged in the material that nine months later I was mailing my graduation package!!
I found the course content clear and easy to assimilate. Course and university support was absolutely outstanding. Courses such as Influence or Negotiation are quite novel and not typical for a traditional MBA program. EBS brings a refreshing challenge of contemporary courses applicable in all areas at a personal and professional level.
Examinations are rigorous and the level of commitment required is high, however, the rewards in terms of retention, learning and applied knowledge are immensurable.
Last but not least, the EBS MBA is recognized and highly valued around the world. It gave me the opportunity to apply my acquired knowledge in North America, South Africa, Romania and Denmark and empowered me to perform at the top of my field.
I am currently working on my DBA with EBS and I find the experience equally rewarding.
I endorse EBS’s MBA program for its unique features and its capacity to prepare strong business professionals through a flexible yet demanding educational framework."
