JFK University's MBA program offers the following benefits making it distinctive from other graduate business programs. Flexible Admission Requirements. We are interested in the whole person - not just the one on paper. Each applicant is considered on his or her own merits, with previous professional experience valued as a part of what the student brings to the program. We accept GMAT scores; however, they are not required. Specialization Options. In addition to specializations in Leadership, Project Management, Strategic Management, and Entrepreneurial Leadership, students can customize their own specialization to sync with their own career path or goals.
