A new EMBA cohort begins in August each year.
Deadline to submit applications is June 30.
Applicants are encouraged to apply early, as space is limited. Applications are considered on a rolling basis year-round. Applicants accepted early are welcome to begin classes in the spring or summer semester by taking one or both of their electives before the start of the EMBA program in August.
We accept up to six credit hours of graduate-level coursework applicable to your program and completed with distinction at an AACSB-accredited institution. All transfer credit must be approved by your academic advisor during your first semester.
Applications are reviewed as they are submitted. All application materials including resume and personal statement must be submitted before your application will be reviewed by the admissions committee.
Please submit these documents along with your application to UMKC:
Once all of the application materials have been received, an interview will be scheduled with the EMBA Executive Coach.
We offer a limited number of scholarships in amounts up to $15,000 based on a combination of merit and need. To be considered for a scholarship, first apply to UMKC, then email us an essay of at least 500 words describing the unique value that you can bring to the cohort and your specific financial concerns. Scholarship applications will be considered on a case-by-case basis through the June 30 application deadline.
To be considered for additional financial aid and scholarships, you must be admitted to UMKC as a degree-seeking student. Priority deadline for UMKC financial aid: Feb. 1
