If you go to school for a ba in theology or divinity can you keep going and get your mba in business?

from what i remember you dont need anything leading to the mba .

all you need is a ba or bs degree and continue your education with a mba?

i want an mba with a concentration in marketing.

is that correct?

I think you’re right; all you need for an MBA is experience. Some business schools won’t even take you unless you’ve been out of school for 5-6 years.

But don’t get an MBA. They’re worthless degrees. In the business field, you’re better off just having the experience and saving your money. If you want to do marketing, focus on the psychology or the design and get a degree in either of those. A theology or divinity degree might translate quite well to a psychology or counseling degree later on down the road.

Check the school you are considering. Most master’s level programs have prerequisites. . . you may have to take a few undergrad courses to meet the prerequisites. Make sure the college is accredited or you will have a worthless degree.

You can earn your MBA no matter what undegraduate degree you currenltly hold. However, if you have not taken any business or statistics classes you may be require to take a few of those first since a lot of the information you will cover in an MBA program will obviously be both business and finance/math related no matter what concentration you choose. You should absolutely move forward if that is what you want to pursue!
