Q

Does the Kepha Institute MBA Preparatory Course Have Credits? Is there a Transcript?

This project course does not have credits, but a transcript can be obtained. Students who score 75 or higher on all three exams will receive a non-credit MBA Preparatory Courses Transcript. The grades can be used as a reference for continuing to apply for admission to our MBA master’s degree program.

Studying the preparatory course does not necessarily mean direct admission into the MBA program, and credits cannot be transferred into the formal MBA degree course, but it can provide preparatory training and priority under the same application conditions for applicants to the Kepha Institute MBA degree. Admission to the master’s degree program requires meeting the admission requirements of the major. See the MBA master’s degree program admissions brochure for details.
