THE
APPLICATION PROCESS
Every applicant must complete an application package which includes permission to conduct a background check, letters of reference, an application essay, any required entry exams, and transcripts. In addition, every applicant must undergo an interview with staff members, either telephonically, or via interactive video. Carland College only accepts adult learners. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE MASTER OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP Applicants
must present evidence of graduation from a college which has been
accredited by an agency approved by the U.S. Department of Education,
or its international equivalent. Applicants who have not taken
the Graduate Management Aptitude Test or the Graduate Records Exam must
arrange to take one or the other and must provide scores from those
exams to the College. The Exam will be waived for applicants who
hold an advanced degree. There is no minimum score or minimum
grade point average. The Evaluation Committee considers
experience, grades, exam scores, evaluation of the application essay,
and performance during the interview. The Committee weighs the
various factors to determine whether it feels that a candidate is ready
for graduate education.

I decided
at age 49 to embark on an MBA, for no particular reason other than for
the educational experience. I took an introductory class in
Entrepreneurship from Jim and JoAnn Carland. One class was
all it took to hook me. This discipline is clearly more useful,
practical and engaging. The Carlands' approach to education is
refreshing, and unfortunately unique. This is truly what education
should be about....thinking, writing, and interacting.

The Carlands' entrepreneurship program gave me the tools necessary to exercise economic brain power from the Captain's seat. I was glad there was a program out there for those aspiring to be business owners versus corporate managers. Jonathan
