35% Women

Continually confronted with unique challenges in the workplace and when working through the application process, our supportive community celebrates women's unique perspectives and highlights their accomplishments. In the Part-Time MBA Program, Graduate Women in Business (GWB) provides a forum for professional development, mentoring, and networking both within the school and in the community at large.

5% Veterans

Since 2006, the number of veteran MBA students enrolled at Chicago Booth has increased nearly 300 percent. As the community has grown, our Armed Forces Group (AFG) has been instrumental in offering mentorship and support to veterans applying for and pursuing their MBA. Beyond the Booth community, veterans and active members of the military also have access to a wide array of resources within the greater University of Chicago.

20% International

As the global landscape changes each day, the presence of international perspectives in the classroom is more valuable now than ever before. We're sensitive to the unique needs and challenges faced by this group and work to support them as they adjust to living and learning in the US. The Part-Time MBA Program welcomes students not only from the United States, but also international students who are in the United States on a valid work visa.

US Race/Ethnicity

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

US race/ethnicity enrollment is shown as a percent of US citizens and permanent residents. Chicago Booth adheres to federal guidelines for maintaining, collecting, and presenting data on race and ethnicity as provided by The Department of the Interior via the Office of Civil Rights. These standards allow students to self-identify their ethnicity and race, with the option to select more than one race and/or ethnicity. The racial and ethnic categories listed here reflect those included in our application. Multi-Dimensional Reporting depicts students’ full racial and ethnic identities to more inclusively reflect the racial/ethnic groups they identify with beyond a grouping of “Multi-Race,” within the Federal Guidelines. This results in an aggregate of more than 100 percent.

Pre-Booth Industries

The motivating factors for pursuing an MBA are as diverse as our students' career backgrounds. What remains consistent is their ability to thrive in a flexible environment that allows them to build deeper knowledge in the areas they're passionate about and fill knowledge gaps along the way.

Post-Booth Career Impact

The Chicago Approach teaches students how to think not what to think, building business foundations and analytical tools needed for the jobs of today and tomorrow. Booth's Part-Time MBA students will join a global network of nearly 57,000 Booth alumni making an impact in the world around us.
