The life of an MBA student is a long journey requiring equal parts dedication, focus, and patience to complete. If you are mulling over the pursuit of an MBA degree, but are unsure of what challenges await, then make sure to check out the infographic on the MBA Lifecycle below, which illustrates the major benchmarks of graduate business school students. We identified key steps throughout the MBA admissions journey to help you benchmark key decisions as you go through the process.

– Consider financial, living arrangements, and relocation
– Begin classes
– Clubs, networks and internships

The simple answer is yes! There are a variety of different MBA options available for students. For example, some programs are only offered online, eliminating any planning on relocation and living arrangements. Also, many programs do not require the GMAT or GRE, eliminating this phase in the lifecycle. As you research your program options, it is important to note which parts of the MBA Lifecycle can be eliminated.
