The Deferred Business Administration program at The University of Chicago, known as the Chicago Booth Scholars Program, allows eligible students to secure admission to a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree program during their final year of undergraduate or master's studies. Admitted students then defer admission for two to five years to gain professional work experience before formally enrolling in the MBA program. This program offers flexibility to explore different career options with a guaranteed spot in a top MBA program, along with access to Chicago Booth's network, events, and resources during the deferment period. The MBA curriculum is designed to be flexible, allowing students to tailor their academic journey to their interests and career goals, rooted in the fundamentals of business.
