Weekend MBA

Many students around the country wish to pursue their MBA at Chicago Booth. With classes that meet every Saturday, either from 9 a.m. - 12 p.m. or 1:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m., for eleven weeks, the Weekend MBA program accommodates those who live or work outside of Chicago to attend and receive the same experience as Evening MBA students. It is also ideal for those in the area whose schedules do not permit them to take classes on weeknights.

The Weekend MBA Program admits new students in the autumn quarter only. Approximately 100 students a year matriculate into the program.

You will find the program has a strong sense of community as many students share a bond by virtue of their commitment to travel to attend Booth. We even recognize that dedication each year through the Road Warrior award. Social and student group activities hosted on Fridays and Saturdays make it easy to network.

Flexibility

If your schedule permits, you can choose to take classes in the Evening MBA or Full-time MBA program. Also, if you miss a class, you can make up the session in the Evening MBA program if that works for you and your professor.

Road Warriors 

Many dedicated students travel to attend the Weekend MBA program. You’ll find classmates who live in Houston, Boston, San Francisco, Washington DC, New York, Seattle and other cities.

For those who travel to attend Chicago Booth, we offer several services to make your commute easier. We operate a shuttle service to and from Midway and O’Hare, host coffee service on Saturdays and have agreements with several local hotels that offer Booth students a special rate.
