\"How<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With the unprecedented reality of a worldwide pandemic, it is reasonable to be concerned about the MBA admissions process<\/a>. Universities have emptied out their campuses, and both students and teachers are rapidly trying to adjust to remote learning and a host of other modifications in traditional education. Additionally, job prospects are dwindling as the economy dips and layoffs begin. The lack of clarity around MBA programs with deadlines in summer 2020 or fall 2020 can be anxiety-provoking, so here at Accepted, we want to provide you with the best guidance possible as you consider your application options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll find below a roundup of MBA deadline extensions and changes. Check back soon for more advice and insight into pursuing an MBA during the current health crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
