Plan of Study

Students should follow the Evening MBA Plan of Study, beginning with Level I and Level II (core courses) and progressing through Level III and then electives. Core courses are offered primarily every Fall and Spring. Electives should be taken later in the program once the majority of Levels I and II are completed, however, you may take an elective in the summer if you wish to continue working through your Plan of Study year-round. 

Most Evening MBA students take 2 courses per semester, however the flexibility of the program allows students to increase or decrease their academic load each term in order to accommodate their personal and professional demands.  If you plan to enroll full-time, please arrange an appointment with an advisor by emailing EveningMBAStudent@vt.edu to map out your schedule.

Standard fall and spring schedules are to be used as a resource when planning your courses each semester.  Schedules are intended only as a guideline and are subject to change. We recommend that new students meet with their advisor during their second semester and continue to do so periodically throughout the program. This will ensure that they stay on target for graduation and that unexpected conflicts in schedule can hopefully be avoided.
