Tuition and Fees

Tuition and fees for the WEMBA class entering in 2025 will be $238,620 or $39,770 per academic term.

The MBA Program for Executives is a full-tuition program. This means that: (a) you will pay full tuition in each semester regardless of your course load, and (b) you must pay at least six semesters’ full tuition and fees before you can graduate. Tuition will be divided into six installments. For six semesters’ tuition and fees, you are allowed a maximum of 22 CU before graduating from the MBA Program for Executives. If, with the permission of your academic advisor, you carry a course load beyond 22 CU, you will be billed a tuition surcharge. Please Note: Tuition is based on a course load of up to 22 CUs.  Students with course loads under 22 CUs will not be entitled to a tuition rebate or discount.  All 22 credit units must be taken before graduation.

The cost of the Wharton Executive MBA is designed to cover more than just the price of courses. The total two-year cost includes:

• Executive MBA tuition
