A dean of MBA admissions explains how to decide between full-time or part-time business school

Published by Business Insider on Sun, 23 Jul 2017


Full-time professionals interested in continuing their education often face the same worry: Is the loss of income and two years spent out of the workforce worth getting a master of business administration (MBA) degree'The answer depends on what you aim to get out of business school, according to Isser Gallogly, Associate Dean of MBA Admissions at New York University's Stern School of Business."If being fully immersed in your experience in business school is incredibly importantto you, a full-time programobviously optimizes that," Gallogly told Business Insider."Business school is much more than the classroom experience. A huge part of the MBAprogram [is]the networking opportunities ...you're building a network for life."There are trade-offs when thinking about pursuing a part-time or a full-time program. "With a full-time program, there's more investment in terms of the cost because you're forgoing income but you have more time to invest in the program," Gallogly said. "With part-time, you're obviously keeping your job, keeping your income, so there's less opportunitycost, but on the flip side, you have less time to go to business school and get engaged and involved."Still, Stern's part-time program has fouror five happy hours a week, and retreats away from campus to ensure students still have some of the same networking benefits.However, "if networking and being fully involved is incredibly important and your job is somewhat limiting, full-time may be a better option in that case," according to Gallogly.SEE ALSO:Here's what it takes to get into America's best business schoolsJoin the conversation about this storyNOW WATCH: Valedictorians rarely become rich and famous ' here's why the average millionaire's college GPA is 2.9
