Welcome to Duquesne University and the Donahue Graduate School of Business. Our MBA Sustainability program attracts interest from highly qualified students from around the world.
Admission to our MBA Sustainability program is very selective, and both U.S. and international applicants are expected to demonstrate their potential to perform well in a demanding 12-month curriculum.
The information below will guide you, step by step, through the process of applying to Duquesne’s 12-month MBA Sustainability program. We are presently accepting applications for Fall 2008.
If you are a US citizen living overseas, or hold a Green Card or refugee status, you will be considered as a domestic applicant. As an international student, if you are accepted, you will be required to obtain a visa to study in the US.
