Preparing for Success
Our online format makes it possible for working professionals to balance personal, professional and academic growth. That translates to greater ROI potential.
Students continue working while in the program, meaning they don’t forgo career progression or earnings. With no gap in their employment history or relocation expenses, students can often repay any financial aid sooner and see a faster return on their tuition expenses.
“Part of being an alum is giving back. I feel like people reach out to me all the time because we have this common bond. Being a graduate of UNC just gives you access to conversations you weren’t part of before.”
While classes are hosted online, the connections and professional relationships that our students forge are some of the most valuable elements of our program.
Not only does the face-to-face learning and interactive structure facilitate high-level collaboration, but you will join both the UNC-Chapel Hill and UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School alumni networks.
