  • We want to make sure we are a fit for you and that you are a fit for your future peers. We believe who is in the classroom is just as important as providing next-level executive education in the classroom. This interview acts as an opportunity to express our excitement about your consideration and your opportunity to evaluate a proper fit. 

    At Coles, we believe you are our learning partner. You will learn from us, we will learn from you, and you and your classmates will learn from each other. The value of your degree is not just in the Coles brand, but in the people you interact with throughout the MBA Executive program. After graduation you will become a part of our extensive alumni association that you will network with for a lifetime. 

  • We want to learn about your goals, professional experience, interests, and your desire to pursue our Executive MBA. If we discover the Coles EMBA is a match for you, we will discuss the next steps. If the program does not appear to be a match, we will help you explore other Coles graduate program options. This EMBA degree is a life-changing experience but only if you are ready. We need to be sure that you will be able to benefit from the same life-changing experience our alumni rave about year after year.
