Held on the William & Mary campus in Williamsburg, the program provides a collaborative, immersive environment back by the full resources of the Raymond A. Mason School of Business. With a streamlined curriculum that can be completed in approximately two years, the Part-Time MBA gives you the flexibility to accelerate, slow your pace, or take a semester off as life requires. You'll earn the same William & Mary MBA as our full-time and online students—taught by the same award-winning faculty—and benefit from resources like the Executive Partners program and Graduate Career Management Center, ensuring both immediate and lifelong return on your investment.

From the application process on, William & Mary was a warm, collaborative, welcoming community that was invested in my success. I made what I consider lifelong friends in the program and I think that was such a unique component of the PTMBA experience.
